Squad depthGoal-getting Centre-forward

C. Pulišić is a 27-year-old centre-forward at AC Milan, rated 67.6 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 181st of 388 on scout potential in the Serie A. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (58% of available minutes). He brings 0.67 goal contributions per 90 (0.45 goals, 0.22 assists). Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Pulišić.

Judged on this season alone, Pulišić graded 50 — a strong campaign that ranks top 19% of the 49 centre-forwards in the Serie A, on 8 goals and 4 assists in 30 appearances (0.667 involvements per 90).

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 58 → 50). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 68, 23rd of 49 of the 49 centre-forwards in the Serie A. At 27 Pulišić is in his prime years, and a market index of 51.1 reflects that trajectory.

Read the appearance count in context: Pulišić missed 7 games through injury (thigh, injury, muscle) out of roughly 38 this season. The 30 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.67 goal contributions per 90 (0.45 goals, 0.22 assists) — productive for the role.
  • Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 91/100).

Watch points

Outlook

With a Rating of 67.6, Pulišić carries the 23rd-highest potential of the centre-forwards in the Serie A of 49. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.67 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
