Christian Pulisic has extended his stay at AC Milan with a new contract that keeps him at the club until the end of the 2030‑31 season. The 28‑year‑old American forward, who joined the Rossoneri in 2023 from Chelsea for a fee around €22 million, signed the deal after his previous contract was set to expire in June 2027. The announcement came a day after the club unveiled plans for a new stadium that will open in 2031, and the club’s official statement described the extension as part of “Captain America’s Rossonero mission.”
Pulisic’s arrival at Milan was the result of a competitive bidding war that saw Juventus, Lyon and Galatasaray all eye the player. He has since become a key figure in manager Ruben Amorim’s squad, operating both as a central No. 10 and on the wing. In 141 appearances for the club, he has scored 44 goals and supplied 28 assists, and he finished as Milan’s top scorer in the 2024‑25 Serie A campaign. The new contract will see him stay on the pitch beyond the next World Cup, giving the club a long‑term cornerstone in a period of rebuilding.
The deal was confirmed by ESPN on Wednesday and officially announced by AC Milan on Friday. The club highlighted the timing of the extension, noting that it coincides with the launch of the new stadium, which is expected to be ready in 2031. Milan’s press release also mentioned that the stadium naming rights agreement is among the largest in global sport, underscoring the club’s ambition to cement its position both on and off the field.
Internationally, Pulisic has been a mainstay for the United States men’s national team, earning 90 caps and netting 33 goals. He represented the U.S. at both the 2022 and 2026 World Cups and has been named U.S. Soccer Male Player of the Year four times (2017, 2019, 2021, 2023). The extension secures his services for Milan as they look to build a competitive side that can challenge domestically and in Europe.
With the contract in place, Pulisic will continue to be a central figure in Milan’s plans as the club prepares for its new home stadium and aims for higher achievements in Serie A and the Champions League. The move also signals Milan’s commitment to retaining top talent and maintaining continuity as they navigate the next decade of football.
