  WHAT HAPPENED?

  Pulisic left Chelsea for Milan in a £17 million ($22m) transfer last July and a month later compatriot Musah swapped Valencia for the Italian giants in a £15.5m ($19.8m) move. While winger Pulisic, 25, was a regular, midfield Musah, 21, has been a bit-part player, often introduced from the bench. Now, manager Pioli has given his assessment on the the club's recent additions.

  WHAT STEFANO PIOLI SAID

  The Italian, who is tipped to leave his role at the end of the campaign, said: "New players have important qualities and can do even more. Surely they will do more. We’ve had highs and lows, but not because they lacked commitment. This is why I want to reward everyone in the last two matches because I can only be grateful to this group."

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  By their own standards, Milan have had a disappointing season. That may cost Pioli his job, as the Rossoneri have failed to pick up any silverware this term. United States international Pulisic has scored 15 goals, bagged nine assists and barely missed a game for Milan. Musah, on the other hand, has started just 12 Serie A matches, so him tying down a regular spot and Pulisic taking his game to the next level could help the Italian giants winning trophies once again.
