Christian Pulisic’s stellar month of December earned him a major recognition in Serie A.
Pulisic was named Serie A Player of the Month for December, the league announced Friday. The U.S. men’s national team forward has been one of the Rossoneri’s best players this season, carrying his strong form into 2024.
Pulisic made five league appearances last month, totaling two goals and two assists for AC Milan. He also added one goal in UEFA Champions League action in a 2-1 group stage triumph over Newcastle United.
“The impact of the captain of the US national team, Christian Pulisic, on the Italian league has been immediately equal to his talent,” said Lega Serie A CEO Luigi De Siervo. “Never ordinary plays combined with concreteness, personality, vision of the game and spirit of sacrifice have made him fundamental in the tactical set-up of AC Milan, which, also thanks to the two goals and two assists scored in December by the American player, remains firmly in the Champions League area of the league table.”
The 25-year-old has continued to make an impact in the new year, registering two assists (one in Serie A and one in Coppa Italia play). Pulisic has made 17 Serie A appearances in total since his summer move from Chelsea, scoring six goals and registering five assists in league action.
AC Milan has reaped the rewards of Pulisic’s positive run of form, moving up to third place in the Serie A standings.
The Rossoneri will next square off with AS Roma in league action on Sunday before concluding January’s schedule with matches against Udinese and Bologna.
