Overview
- AC Milan beat Hellas Verona 3-0 at San Siro, with Christian Pulisic opening the scoring to send Milan to the top of the table and extend their league unbeaten run.
- Pulisic has 10 goals and two assists in 15 appearances this season and has contributed to 50 Milan goals (31 goals, 19 assists) since joining in 2023.
- Christopher Nkunku scored his first Serie A goals for Milan with a second‑half brace, converting a penalty he won and adding a close‑range finish minutes later.
- Manager Massimiliano Allegri praised Pulisic’s form but said he is not yet at peak fitness due to a minor hamstring issue, noting occasional slowness in play.
- Reports in Italy suggest Milan could entertain offers for Nkunku at around €35 million with interest from Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe, while a loan move for Niclas Füllkrug has been reported for January.
