Former U.S. men's national team goalkeeper Brad Friedel has assessed Christian Pulisic's contract decision at AC Milan, stating that the American winger is facing a wave of criticism for the first time in his career. Friedel's comments come as Pulisic looks to bounce back from a disappointing World Cup campaign with the United States.
The evaluation highlights the scrutiny surrounding Pulisic's future at the Serie A club. His current contract covers the 2026-27 season, and discussions about his long-term role are ongoing.
Friedel suggested that the pressure could serve as a defining moment for Pulisic's development. The player's response to the criticism will likely shape his trajectory at both club and international level.
