AC Milan winger Christian Pulisic has breathed a sigh of relief after suffering an injury during the World Cup match between the United States and Belgium. The initial fears have been alleviated as the severity of the injury is not as bad as expected. Pulisic will undergo further tests to assess the extent of the problem before starting his vacation and returning to Milanello.

The medical staff of AC Milan has been in touch with the US national team's medical team, and the updates suggest that the injury is not severe. Pulisic explained that he suffered a complete twist of both his ankle and knee during the same play, which forced him to leave the game. He expressed disappointment at the early end to his World Cup campaign, but he will use the extra time to recover.

Pulisic will join AC Milan at Milanello in mid-July for the usual physical tests that precede the athletic preparation. He will skip the first phase of the training camp and join his teammates later, with the goal of being fully available for the summer tour abroad scheduled for the end of the month.

The club is monitoring Pulisic's clinical evolution to plan his return to the group. The American winger's injury had raised concerns among AC Milan fans, but the latest updates have brought relief.
