Landon Donovan weighs in on Christian Pulisic’s potential MLS move after contract decision
U.S. Men's National Team legend Landon Donovan has given his thoughts on Christian Pulisic's contract extension with AC Milan and what this means for a potential Major League Soccer move
Christian Pulisic has decided to extend his contract with AC Milan through the summer of 2031, meaning he will likely remain in Italy for the foreseeable future. Veteran U.S. Men’s National Team star Landon Donovan recently shared his thoughts on the news, stating that Pulisic has essentially given all of his prime years to Milan.
The 28-year-old has thrived in Italy since moving from Chelsea in 2023, scoring at least 10 goals in each of his three seasons at the San Siro and once being the Rossoneri’s leading goalscorer. Donovan, who previously played for Everton, understands Pulisic's contentment in Milan, as he felt similarly when he found comfort at his former club.
While U.S. soccer fans may have hoped to see Pulisic return to Major League Soccer, Donovan believes that the Italian forward is happy in Italy and that no amount of money could persuade him to leave his comfortable and successful environment. Pulisic has recently returned to Milan's starting lineup after recovering from injuries sustained during the recent FIFA World Cup.
