Milan star Pulisic tempted by €50m New York City FC offer | OneFootball

Reports in Italy claim that Milan’s Christian Pulisic is ‘tempted’ by a potential offer from MLS side New York City FC, who are reportedly prepared to pay the American €50m over five years to return to his homeland.

New York City FC want to bring Pulisic back to America

Pulisic is one of several Milan players whose future remains unsettled following the team’s failure to qualify for the 2026-27 edition of the Champions League.

The former Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund forward is heading into the final year of his contract in San Siro, expiring in 2027, although the club do have an option to extend that agreement by a further 12 months until the summer of 2028.

There had been discussions over a contract extension for Pulisic at various stages of the 2025-26 campaign, but an agreement over a renewal has not yet arrived. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the club had discussed a potential salary offer of around €5m per season, which pales in comparison to the offer that the American has reportedly received from New York City FC.

La Gazzetta dello Sport claims that the MLS side are willing to hand Pulisic a five-year, €10m-per-season contract to bring him back to the United States for the first time in his senior career. Wednesday’s report claims that Pulisic is ‘tempted’.

An offer has not yet been made to Milan, though, and it remains to be seen how much it will take to convince the Rossoneri into selling one of their star assets this summer.

Heung-min Son remains the most expensive arrival in MLS history at a reported fee of €22m, and the €20m barrier has only been surpassed twice in the division’s history. It is expected that it would take a league-record offer to convince Milan into selling Pulisic this summer.
