Christian Pulisic secured his long-term future at AC Milan by signing a contract extension through 2031 before opening the scoring in a 3-1 victory over rivals Inter Milan at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. The 28-year-old winger registered his fourth career goal in the Derby della Madonnina just days after formalizing his updated deal with the Rossoneri.
The derby triumph leaves Milan fifth in the Serie A standings with 21 points from their opening 10 matches, remaining seven points behind league leaders Lazio. Pulisic’s early strike set the tone for a crucial victory that keeps Milan competitive within the top five following a demanding opening stretch to the domestic campaign.

“What this club has given me, from top to bottom. The confidence they’ve given me. To repay these fans on a day like today, but I want to give them so much more because they really restarted my career and helped me in so many ways, so I owe it to them.”
Pulisic’s extension through 2031 provides squad continuity for AC Milan’s attack over the coming seasons. His return of 45 goals since his 2023 arrival underscores his role as a dependable contributor in high-stakes domestic competition.
