I think the answer to that is yes,&#8221; Sims added. &#8220;If AC Milan doesn&#8217;t want to let him go, that&#8217;s for naught. So ultimately we believe that Christian wants to play in MLS, he wants to come back to his hometown, and we think and hope that at some point New York City FC will be high on his list of teams he wants to play for&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pulisic, an attacking midfielder from Hershey, Pennsylvania, will turn 28 in September. He is in the fourth season of a five-year contract with AC Milan, having previously played for Borussia Dortmund from 2016-19 and Chelsea from 2019-23.<\/p>\n<p>Pulisic has scored 33 goals in 90 international games, but his form is declining. <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">disappointing world cup<\/span> However, he failed to score and had one assist. He missed one of the five games in the United States due to injury, but returned early for the other two games. Pulisic left after last week&#8217;s round of 16 defeat to Belgium. <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">break your right leg<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I felt really good with the players this summer, and I thought my level was high,&#8221; he said after the match. \u201cIt\u2019s unfortunate that we didn\u2019t get to have any of the moments that we were looking forward to and trying to get through to get over that next step of beating a really good team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pulisic scored 10 goals in his first 15 games for AC Milan last season, but he has failed to score in 19 games since December 28, ending the club season with a career-worst run without scoring.<\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP Soccer: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/soccer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/pulisic-nyfc-mls-d3e170cb2db19fe6646e83c47f7ad0c6\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 New York City FC wants to sign Christian Pulisic to play in Major League Soccer, but AC Milan admits it has no interest in selling the top American player. &#8220;If we asked our 29 counterparts around the league if they would be interested in having Christian Pulisic on their team, I&#8217;m<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":39553,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-39552","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-soccer"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Major League Soccer&#039;s NYCFC wants to sign Christian Pulisic, but AC Milan announces they are not interested - EPL VIP \u2013 Latest English Premier League News &amp;
