The AC Milan star continues on his red hot form and will hopefully showcase his skills once again versus Juventus at the San Siro this coming Saturday.
After the victory over Jamaica's national team, the ex Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund star spoke to the media.
What did Christian Pulisic say?
- On the 'trump dance' celebration:
"I saw everyone doing it yesterday in the NFL, I saw Jon Jones do it, and we were just having a bit of fun. I thought it was a pretty fun dance. Obviously, that's the 'Trump Dance' but it was just a dance that everyone was doing. He's the one who created it, and I thought it was funny."
- He added:
"It's not a political dance. It was just for fun. I saw a bunch of people do it and thought it was funny, so I enjoyed it," he told ESPN.
Pulisic has now contributed to four goals across three games since Mauricio Pochettino took over. Under Paulo Fonseca this season, he has been also really good, scoring seven goals and providing five assists in fifteen matches between the Serie A and the Champions League.
The 26-year-old said he wants to help and contribute beyond goals and assists:
"I just want to help the team—not only with goals and assists but with everything. I try to be a leader and help win matches. I'm happy to be playing like this. Qualifying for the Nations League semifinals? It was very important for us to achieve this goal. In March, we’ll have some important games in Los Angeles, and we’re looking forward to them, it’s an exciting time."
Pulisic continued:
"I’m grateful to be in this position; I’ve been part of this team for quite some time now, I’m almost a veteran. I’m enjoying it and hope to be a good leader," as relayed via Milannews.it.
