Quizzed on whether Pulisic will be registering on recruitment radars as he stars for his country, ex-USMNT goalkeeper Keller – speaking exclusively to GOAL as 2026 World Cup final predictions are drawn up – said: “Yes, but I think after the difficulties of Chelsea, there is something about being somewhere where you’re comfortable, you’re successful, you’re established, and it just happens to be AC Milan.
“We all know it’s not the AC Milan of the 90s, but it’s still one of the biggest clubs in the world, so to then just say, ‘yes, I’m in the shop window, now I’m going to go here and basically have to start over again’.
“I loved the challenge. I loved going to a different club, a different league, to prove myself, to have different experiences, so whatever’s right for the player, is right for the player. If Christian says, ‘hey, I want to have another crack at England or maybe Spain’, cool, but also at the same time, you’re at a great place, so if that’s what’s right for you, then that’s what’s right for you.”
