Liverpool monitoring USMNT’s Christian Pulisic as Milan contract winds down

Liverpool have added United States international Christian Pulisic to their list of transfer targets, with the 27-year-old winger’s long-term future at AC Milan still unresolved, according to Italian journalist Nicolo Schira.

Pulisic, who joined Milan from Chelsea in 2023, has 18 months left on his San Siro deal, which is scheduled to expire in June 2027. The contract contains a club option that could stretch the agreement to 2028, yet sources indicate the Serie A side have not tabled the expected extension, prompting Premier League interest.

Despite the uncertainty, Pulisic is said to be content in Italy and had anticipated opening talks over fresh terms after a productive start to the campaign. Across 20 appearances in all competitions he has contributed 10 goals and two assists, re-establishing himself among Milan’s most consistent attacking threats.

Liverpool’s recruitment staff have been tracking the Pennsylvania native’s situation for several weeks, viewing his experience in both the Premier League and Champions League as an attractive proposition should negotiations in Milan stall. No formal bid has been lodged, but the Merseysiders are poised to act quickly if the player becomes further available.

The development adds another layer to a potentially busy winter window for Arne Slot’s side, who continue to scour the market for wide reinforcements while juggling domestic and European commitments.

Pulisic, capped 75 times by the USMNT, previously spent four seasons at Chelsea, winning the Champions League in 2021, and would offer Liverpool both versatility across the front line and valuable marketing appeal in North America.

For now, Milan retain control of the asset, yet failure to secure his signature beyond 2027 could invite concrete offers from Anfield or elsewhere before the summer.
