Christian Pulisic’s revived his career since leaving Chelsea last summer and joining AC Milan.

Christian Pulisic spent fours years at Stamford Bridge as a Chelsea player, where he went through plenty of highs and lows.

The American attacker wrapped up with a very disappointing campaign last year, scoring once in 30 games across all competitions.

Following his £20 million transfer to the San Siro (BBC), he’s managed to rediscover his best form in the famous red and black stripes.

Pulisic’s back to his very best since joining up with Italian giants Milan.

The winger’s now up to 11 goals and eight assists in 38 appearances across all competitions this season.

In fact, he’s done something that he never achieved in Chelsea colours.

The former Chelsea attacker has now scored in three consecutive matches for Milan, which is a feat he couldn’t do in west London.

Pulisic scored last night in Milan’s win against Slavia Praha in the Europa League. He scored in the first leg versus Slavia Praha last week, plus netted the winning goal in a Serie A victory over Empoli at the weekend.

Our biggest frustration with Pulisic’s Chelsea career is that he struggled for any kind of consistency, but he’s putting in so many brilliant performances this year over in Italy. This three-game goal streak is proof he’s loving life right now in Milan.

Speaking via The Athletic back in January, Pulisic admitted he was happy to have left Chelsea and joined up with Milan. His form has only got better since, too!

It felt like his time at Chelsea came to a natural end and he needed a fresh start. At the age of 25, he could still have his best years ahead of him as he goes about unlocking the obvious potential that’s always been in him.

It’s great to see he’s fitted in effortlessly into Italian football, which does look a much better fit than the power of the Premier League.
