Former Milan director Ariedo Braida compares Christian Pulisic to Alexandre Pato and Roberto Donadoni: ‘I must admit that he surprised me…’
American winger Pulisic has been arguably Milan’s best player in the first part of 2024-25, scoring eight goals and providing six assists in 19 appearances across all competitions.
“I must admit that he has surprised me,” Ariedo Braida said on Tuesday during an event in Milan.
“When he faces the opponent for a one-on-one, I see something of Pato, and when he flutters, he’s similar to Donadoni, but today’s football is different, so I won’t make comparisons.”
Braida is one of the most relevant Milan directors in the last 30 years. Alongside Adriano Galliani, he signed many big players for the Rossoneri, including Ballon d’Or winners George Weah and Andriy Shevchenko.
