The new Milan will have to start again from two players in particular: Christian Pulisic and Tijjani Reijnders. And it’s no coincidence that the Dutchman has already extended his contract until 2030, while the American is getting closer to renewing until 2029.
The Rossoneri club knows well that their excellent performances have attracted the attention of other clubs, which is why, after securing Tijji, they are aiming to lock down Chris very soon, as relayed via Milannews.it.

Pulisic and Reijnders' numbers:
While the former Chelsea winger is effectively confirming the excellent numbers from last year, the Dutchman continues to surprise and is scoring like a striker: the ex AZ Alkmaar midfielder, who had scored just four goals in his first season at Milan, is already at 13 goals. And we are only in mid-March, so he still has plenty of time to further improve his numbers.
This is especially true since he is just one goal away from an impressive record: as Tuttosport reports, with one more goal, Tijji could match Franck Kessie at the top of the special list of midfielders (excluding attacking midfielders) with the most goals in a single season in Milan's history since 1986, which is the Berlusconi era.
Reijnders obviously has all the tools to surpass the Ivorian in this special ranking, who, unlike him, also took penalties (in the 2020-2021 season, Kessie scored 12 of them). For Tijjani, this is truly an incredible personal achievement, especially since he has already surpassed players like Seedorf, Bonaventura, Pirlo, Albertini, Rijkaard, Boban, and Donadoni, as well as Calhanoglu and Nocerino, who finished the ’19-20 and ’11-12 seasons with 11 goals respectively, as pointed out by Milannews.it.
The new Milan, therefore, cannot fail to rebuild around a player like Reijnders.
