Christian Pulisic finished his US tour with his new club, AC Milan. The USA National Team player made his debut with the club on the Soccer Champions Tour, and was active in three friendly matches. Now, his new teammates are already reacting to what was shown by "Captain America" in the Italian team during their first games.

 

One of the great references of the team is precisely Rafael Leao. The Portuguese player has established himself in an important way in the club and now, he finally manages to have number 10 and be the new face of the club after being its goalscorer last season and one of Pioli's key pieces. The Portuguese player did not take long to react to what he has seen from Pulisic with AC Milan.

According to the AC Milan star, the arrival of the player from the United States gives him a significant upgrade to the current level of the San Siro team. "I think 2-3 more players will arrive and we will be complete. I liked the arrivals of Loftus-Cheek, Pulisic and Tijjani, I feel that we are stronger than before."

 

Is Milan a candidate to win the Scudetto?

The resurgence of the 'rossoneri' began in 2019 when Stefano Pioli landed on the bench of the Italian team in charge of giving the European giant an image wash. Since the arrival of the 57-year-old coach at the San Siro, Milan has not stopped growing. Now, with reinforcements like Pulisic, Chukwueze and more, the Italian club can dream big in Italy.
