Christian Pulisic has been linked with a potential move to New York FC. The Rossoneri club owner Gerry Cardinale, however, along with new manager Ruben Amorim, value the American forward highly and do not want to let him leave.
The Italian side has rejected a move for their star. current contract runs through June 2027, with a club option to extend that deal by a year.
"If you ask any of my 29 counterparts across the league if they would be interested in having Christian Pulisic on their team, I'm pretty sure you'd get 29 yesses," NYCFC president Brad Sims said Thursday at a Major League Soccer event to promote the resumption of the league's season, as relayed via ESPN.
"Would MLS from a league standpoint love to have Christian Pulisic here? I think the answer to that would be yes," Sims added. "If AC Milan doesn't want to give him up, then it's dead in the water."
"And so I think ultimately we're believers that Christian wants to play in MLS, wants to be back home and at whatever the point in time that is, we would think and hope that New York City FC would be very high on his list of teams that he would want to play for."
