The spotlight once again falls on Christian Pulisic as Milan prepares to host Udinese, yet uncertainty lingers over key decisions heading into the clash. The spotlight once again falls on Christian Pulisic as Milan prepares to host Udinese, yet uncertainty lingers over key decisions heading into the clash. The fixture arrives at a delicate moment for the host, which continues to wrestle with inconsistency after a damaging defeat against Napoli. With pressure mounting, the Rossoneri find themselves balancing short-term recovery with longer-term ambitions in the league. Milan returns to San Siro needing a response after slipping further behind in the title race. A 1-0 loss against Napoli marked its third defeat in six matches, effectively ending hopes of a late charge for the Serie A title. Thus, the focus has now shifted toward securing a Champions League place. Massimiliano Allegri’s side sits third but faces increasing pressure from teams below, making every remaining match critical. In response to recent struggles, Allegri appears ready to adjust his system. After months of persistence with a 3-5-2, a switch to a 4-3-3 has been tested in training, offering a more attack-minded approach. While Milan battles internal pressure, Udinese arrives with less weight on its shoulders. Sitting 11th in the table, the Bianconeri have already secured relative safety and can approach the game with freedom. Recent performances highlight their resilience: a mix of wins, draws, and narrow defeats shows a team capable of disrupting stronger opponents. Will Pulisic play? As the lineups begin to take shape, clarity finally emerges regarding Pulisic’s role. The American will start and play a key role in Milan’s front line, positioned alongside Rafael Leao and Alexis Saelemaekers. This selection comes at a crucial time in his season. The 27-year-old American has not scored in Serie A in 2026, enduring a 13-game goal drought, his longest since arriving in Italy. Despite registering 12 shots on target without scoring this year, he remains one of the most dangerous attacking outlets. The upcoming match offers a timely opportunity to reset his momentum. For Pulisic, the stakes extend beyond a single game. After scoring eight goals earlier in the campaign, his sudden dip in form has drawn attention from fans and analysts alike. Fitness issues have played a role, disrupting rhythm and limiting consistency. Christian Pulisic of AC Milan shoots past Diego Carlos and Jacobo Ramon of Como 1907 However, with a fully fit squad now available, the expectation is that he can rediscover sharpness in the final stretch. This match presents a clear narrative: a player searching for a breakthrough at a decisive point in the season. Ending the drought could reignite both personal confidence and Milan’s attacking edge. Milan vs Udinese: Confirmed lineups Milan confirmed XI (4-3-3): Maignan; Athekame, De Winter, Pavlovic, Bartesaghi; Ricci, Modric, Rabiot; Saelemaekers, Leao, Pulisic. Udinese confirmed XI (3-5-2): Okoye; Kristensen, Kabasele, Solet; Ehizibue, Ekkelenkamp, Karlstrom, Atta, Kamara; Zaniolo, Davis.

Norway star Jens Petter Hauge discusses his journey from AC Milan to Bodø/Glimt and his confidence heading into the World Cup 2026 as Norway returns to the global stage. We are just two months away from the FIFA World Cup, which will see Norway return to a major tournament for the first time since Euro 2000, and one man who will be looking to play a crucial role for them is Jens Petter Hauge. Born on October 12, 1999, Hauge was raised in Bodø and started off in Bodø/Glimt’s academy at 12 years old, ascending through the ranks before signing a professional contract on April 12, 2016. One day later, he came off the bench in the 64th minute and scored a hat-trick on his senior debut in a 6-0 cup win against IK Start. Following in the footsteps of his idol Eden Hazard, Hauge quickly made a name for himself thanks to his fleet feet and change of direction, becoming the club’s youngest-ever goalscorer in the Eliteserien. Whilst he wasn’t able to prevent them from suffering relegation, he nevertheless excelled in the second division and helped them achieve promotion with 2 goals and 13 assists in 2017. “When I got a little bit older, I started understanding more about football. Eden Hazard was my favorite player when he moved to Chelsea, and the way he was having fun while dribbling and scoring against the best teams in England,” stated Hauge in an exclusive World Soccer Talk interview. “It was special for me, and I wanted to be a player like him, so I would describe myself as an offensive player, good one-on-one, creating chances for my teammates and also myself.” After being loaned out to second-tier Aalesunds FK, Hauge returned with a vengeance and racked up 9 goals and 3 assists in 29 appearances across all competitions. 2020 was even better, with Hauge coming out of the pandemic a stronger player and scoring 14 goals and 10 assists in 18 league appearances, prompting him to be named the Eliteserien Young Player of the Year. Whilst he put them on track to win their maiden league title, he wasn’t able to enjoy the trophy: instead, after scoring a goal and an assist in a Europa League qualifier vs. Milan, he joined Milan for €5 million, signing a five-year contract. Hauge enjoyed a promising start to his Milan tenure, racking up 5 goals and 1 assist in 24 appearances, but he wasn’t able to lock down a starting spot during his time in Italy before eventually deciding to make the move to Eintracht Frankfurt in 2021. Hauge quickly adapted to life in Germany, scoring in two of his first three Bundesliga matches and emerging as a vital cog under Oliver Glasner as Eintracht knocked out Real Betis, Barcelona, and West Ham before defeating Rangers on penalties to win the UEFA Europa League, their first continental trophy in 42 years. But rather than stay put and take part in the UEFA Champions League, Hauge was loaned out to Belgian side Gent shortly after being purchased by Eintracht. He provided five assists in 29 appearances before heading back to Die Adler, where he struggled for regular minutes. Having scored 3 goals and 5 assists in 55 appearances for Die Adler, Hauge decided to head back to Bodø/Glimt on loan in January 2024, where he got off to a sensational start by assisting in his first two matches vs. Ajax and scoring 8 goals and 5 assists in 28 appearances en route to the championship. It was only a matter of time before Bodø decided to finalize the transfer for an initial €3.5 million, signing him to a contract through December 31, 2028. “It was a great start for me. Of course, it was a bit of a punch in the face that we didn’t beat Ajax and go through, but still, I was feeling like my fitness level was good. I also contributed with assists and scoring goals later on, so it was good to get that good start and feel that I’m still a good player, and just kept on working from there.” Hauge continued to build on his momentum in 2024/25, kicking off his UEFA Europa League campaign with a brace and an assist vs. Porto before registering an assist against Olympiacos and Lazio, but he was unable to come up with the goods as the Norwegians lost to eventual winners Tottenham Hotspur in the semifinals. After scoring 11 goals and 11 assists in 52 appearances, Hauge has taken things up a notch this season and established himself as one of the top Scandinavian players in Europe alongside the likes of Jesper Karlström, racking up 7 goals and 7 assists in 18 appearances, including 6 goals and 2 assists in 12 Champions League appearances. This form earned him a recall to the national team after a year out, making his 14th Norway appearance in a friendly against the Netherlands on March 27. And maybe, just maybe, he’ll have a role to play in this summer’s World Cup as Norway take on Iraq, France, and Senegal in Group I. “I can promise you that myself and the rest of the national team and the coaching staff did everything we could to make sure that Norway went to a major tournament again, and now, it’s time for the World Cup in North America. It’s going to be amazing; it’s going to be one of the coolest tournaments. I think everything is up for grabs for us, because the team is so talented, and the young Norwegian players now are playing at the best leagues and in the best teams. We will try our best, but personally, I’m confident.”
