Pulisic Out for Weeks with Leg Injury | Oakland News

Christian Pulisic’s World Cup dreams took a brutal turn when he fractured his right leg in a collision with Belgium’s captain—just 52 minutes into the match. Diagnosed with bone bruises and microfractures in both tibia and fibula, the US star faces weeks on the sidelines, compounding his earlier calf injury that already sidelined him in the tournament. With 30 goals in 90 caps, Pulisic is a vital force for the USMNT, though he won’t be able to play beyond this match regardless of how far the team advances. He’s expected to return to training before AC Milan’s season resumes in late August—proof of his resilience as he recovers from a devastating blow.
