Pulisic confirms desire to stay at Milan but admits players find rumours ‘difficult’ | OneFootball

Christian Pulisic has admitted that the speculation surrounding AC Milan can be tough to deal with, and confirmed his desire to stay at the club.

Milan were once again forced to come from behind in order to get the three points against Como at San Siro, just like they were in the reverse game, but they did eventually emerge 2-1 winners.

Luca Da Cunha opened the scoring for the away side in the first half with a nice finish from the edge of the box, but Pulisic and then Tijjani Reijnders scored in the second half to turn the game on its head.

There was a rather sad ending to proceedings though as the team left the field to jeers rather than celebrating with the fans, a sign that not all is rosy despite a second straight victory.

Pulisic spoke in the post-match press conference and to DAZN at the end of the game, another comeback win under Sergio Conceicao. His comments were published by MilanNews.

Will you go back to looking at the table?

“We have to be more positive, because we have won two games in a row. We have the chance to get where we want, but we think game by game.”
