"Christian Pulisic has undergone an MRI scan to determine the extent of the injury he suffered while playing for his national team. Pulisic was forced off during the first half of the friendly match between the USA and Australia, and it was instantly feared that the forward would be looking at a lengthy lay-off rather than just missing a game or two."
"The player will be re-valuated in approximately ten days but his recovery time is currently estimated at approximately three weeks. It is certainly another blow for Massimiliano Allegri to contend with, given that he will most likely now be without Pulisic until after the November international break. What that also means is that he will miss some big games, as will midfielder Adrien Rabiot who also faces around a month out."
"It even came out that Milan are not happy with USA head coach Mauricio Pochettino because of the way he has handled Pulisic during the break. He confirmed that the former Chelsea man was battling an ankle issue, then started him against Australia anyway. After the next lot of internationals, the away derby against Inter follows, and it seems an obvious target to aim for that particular fixture as one that he could come back for."
Christian Pulisic underwent an MRI after being forced off in the first half of the USA friendly with Australia. Tests revealed a low-grade tear to his right hamstring, with re-evaluation scheduled in around ten days. Current recovery time is estimated at about three weeks. Pulisic had earlier been managing an ankle issue but was started against Australia. Milan will likely be without him for matches against Fiorentina, Pisa, Atalanta, Roma and Parma, with the away derby at Inter after the November internationals a possible target for his return.
