Christian Pulisic injury recovery and contract status at AC_

Overview

Christian Pulisic continues to work toward a return to competitive play for AC Milan following injuries sustained during the 2026 World Cup. The player suffered a bone bruise and microfractures in his right tibia and fibula, which sidelined him throughout July.

While Pulisic has been included in matchday squads under manager Ruben Amorim, he has not seen competitive minutes in the early stages of the Serie A campaign. Amorim has emphasized that the winger will only return to the pitch once he meets the “high physical intensity requirements” of his tactical system. In the interim, the club has utilized players such as Alphadjo Cisse in his role.

An upcoming match against Lazio in Rome is viewed as a potential opportunity for Pulisic to make his season debut. Alongside his physical recovery, the player’s long-term future at the club is a point of discussion; club owner Gerry Cardinale is reportedly interested in reaching a new contract agreement with the 27-year-old, rather than relying solely on a unilateral extension option that runs through 2028.
