Both media claim Pulisic won’t play again for Milan this year as the Rossoneri hope he will return to action at the beginning of January for the Supercoppa semifinal against Juventus in Riyadh.

It will be played on January 3 and will be the Rossoneri’s first match of 2025. The Supercoppa Final is scheduled for January 6.

Pulisic sustained a calf injury during a 2-1 loss against Atalanta on Friday. The American star has eight goals and six assists in 20 appearances across all competitions this season.
