Schira: Pulisic ‘one step away’ from AC Milan contract extension – the details | OneFootball

Christian Pulisic is very close to extending his contract with AC Milan and will net a pay rise in recognition of his efforts, a journalist has claimed.

Yesterday an update arrived from La Gazzetta dello Sport about three negotiations that the Milan directors are working on, namely the contract extensions of Tijjani Reijnders, Mike Maignan and Theo Hernandez.

However, there have also been reports circulating suggesting that Milan want to move ahead of time to agree a renewal with Pulisic, who has been nothing short of outstanding since arriving from Chelsea in the 2023 summer window.

According to Nicolo Schira, Pulisic is in fact ‘one step away’ from extending his contract with Milan until 2029 and he will receive €5m net per season as his new salary. As a reminder, his current pay is €4m/yr.

This season marks yet another with over 20 goal contributions for the winger, with 12 goals and nine assists to his name so far across 30 appearances in all competitions. His overall numbers for Milan read 27 goals and 20 assists in 80 games.

The USA international showcased his importance during the 2-0 win over Empoli on Saturday, coming off the bench at half-time as part of a triple change and setting up the two goals that won the game.
