The future of Christian Pulisic at AC Milan is at a crossroads. Negotiations for his renewal are currently on hold amid a slump in form, physical problems and some tension in the player's camp. However, there is still an intention within the club to rectify the situation.
From key figure to goal drought
Pulisic's performance has taken a noticeable dip in 2026. After a brilliant start to the season - where he averaged a goal every 74 minutes - the American has not scored since December 28 against Hellas Verona.
Since then, he has gone more than a dozen games without a goal. His recent assist against Torino FC was just a relief in the midst of a streak that has generated doubts among fans and analysts.
Even so, the support from the dressing room is evident. Team-mates such as Youssouf Fofana and Adrien Rabiot have publicly shown their support, even imitating his characteristic celebration.
A low profile amidst the noise
Off the field, Pulisic keeps a low profile. Away from the media spotlight in Milan, he has opted to live in quieter areas such as Busto Arsizio, prioritising a life away from the noise.
A golf and music lover, the American has avoided fueling rumors about his future. In fact, he himself has made it clear that he is not focused on his renewal at the moment:
"I don't talk to my agent about the club or about leaving. I'm happy here and focused on playing," he said recently.
The tax factor that can change everything
Beyond sporting performance, there is one key element that could tip the balance: the tax aspect.
Thanks to the so-called "Growth Decree" in Italy, Pulisic could maintain significant tax benefits if he decides to renew his contract. The regime could even be extended for a further five years if the player makes a real estate investment in the country.
This scenario makes his continuity a viable option for both the club and the player.
A key match on the horizon
The next challenge against Napoli at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium appears to be a perfect opportunity for Pulisic to regain his form and become a key player once again
At a time when his future is up in the air, every performance counts. Milan are hoping to get their "Captain America" back on the pitch... while behind the scenes they are looking to unblock a renewal that, for now, remains on hold.
