Christian Pulisic Suffers Calf Injury During AC Milan Match
The USMNT captain is set for an MRI on Monday after being forced off in the first half of Milan's loss to Atalanta.
- Christian Pulisic exited AC Milan's 2-1 defeat to Atalanta in the 38th minute after sustaining a right calf injury.
- The injury occurred following a challenge from Atalanta midfielder Mario Pašalić, with Pulisic attempting to continue before signaling for a substitution.
- Pulisic has been a key performer for Milan this season, contributing eight goals and six assists in 19 appearances across all competitions.
- The injury could sideline him for Milan's upcoming Champions League match against Red Star Belgrade and Serie A fixtures against Genoa and Hellas Verona.
- The U.S. national team’s next competitive match is in March 2025, giving Pulisic time to recover ahead of the CONCACAF Nations League semifinals.
