Christian Pulisic was Milan‘s MOTM in a 3-0 win over Lecce on Saturday and La Gazzetta dello Sport called the American a ‘true champion’ who has impressed in many different roles this season.
Pulisic was Milan’s best player against Lecce at San Siro on Saturday, according to Italian sports papers.
He started as an attacking midfielder for the first time this season and, as Gazzetta noted, the USMNT captain has now covered any role behind a centre forward this term: right and left winger and attacking midfielder.
The pink paper rated Pulisic 7.5/10 and said the ex-Chelsea man proved to be a champion who “shines” regardless of his role.
