As reported by Corriere dello SportMilan owner Gerry Cardinalis and first team head coach Ruben Amorim want to extend the contracts of Adrien Rabiot and Christian Pulisic.
Both players are at the tail end of their respective deals, and Amorim, who considers them central to his strategy at the San Siro, wants to remove any possible doubt about their future.

Rabitor’s contract, which gives him a net gross salary of €9.26 million, runs until June 2028. Pulisic, meanwhile, enters the final 12 months on a €5.13m-per-year deal.
Another thing that is central to these two is that a big part of the future of Milan is their profile. Both senior players in their own right and versatile midfielders.
Since Rabiot usually occupies the further back pitch spots, he can play as a marauding No. 8 and was also widely used, most notably by Didier Deschamps in France.
Similarly, Pulisic is no stranger to expectations from the leader. Dubbed “Captain America” not long after starting his playing career, the USMNT attacking midfielder is a key part of the setup for both club and country. He is also flexible in the attacking position, and can play both centrally, either as a lead or as a supporter or spread out on either side.
