Overview
- After AC Milan’s 3-0 win over Hellas Verona, Pulisic posted on Instagram asking people to stop “made up stories” about his personal life and said sources should be held accountable.
- The denial follows a wave of reports tracing the rumor to Gazzetta dello Sport, which other outlets echoed without confirmation from either Pulisic or Sweeney.
- Fact-check coverage noted there is no public evidence the pair are dating, no sightings together, and neither party had previously commented before Pulisic’s post.
- Some fans linked Pulisic’s heart-hands goal celebration to the gossip, but his statement directly rejects any such inferences.
- Separate reporting has more firmly linked Sweeney to Scooter Braun, per People, and Pulisic has been reported as involved with golfer Alexa Melton, according to FandomWire.
