USMNT star Pulisic was among those acquired by AC Milan, and Inter keeper Sommer is aware of the considerable threat that the American poses. The Swiss shot-stopper has told of those he has his eye on: “All their strikers, from [Rafael] Leao to Pulisic, are dangerous and strong. I am studying them in detail, trying to predict all possible situations on the pitch, including penalties.”
WHAT THEY SAID
Pulisic has already stated that he believes Milan are capable of competing for the Scudetto this season, and there is nothing to separate the Rossoneri from Inter after three games – with both sides on nine points. Sommer added on a crucial derby clash: “There’s a great atmosphere at the stadium. It’s noisy, thrilling and fun. Everyone who had already played here told me it was amazing. I can’t wait, I know everyone’s waiting for this game. Even my compatriot Ricardo Rodriguez, who played for Milan, always told me about this match. It comes very early in the season and anything can happen. There are other rivals for the title and it’s hard to make predictions.”

Inter currently sit at the top of the Serie A table as they are yet to concede through their opening three games. Pulisic and Co will provide a stern test of those credentials, with Milan impressing many with their trio of early wins.
