Christian Pulisic has officially debunked rumors of a romance with actress Sydney Sweeney, labeling the reports as “fake news” and urging fans to respect his long-term relationship with golfer Alexa Melton.
USMNT star Christian Pulisic has formally addressed and dismissed viral social media rumors linking him to actress Sydney Sweeney.
Reports had surfaced claiming the AC Milan winger and the Christy star were dating, despite both being in high-profile relationships.
Pulisic took to Instagram on Sunday to shut down the speculation, urging the public to stop spreading misinformation regarding his personal life and emphasizing the real-world consequences of such fabrications.
Addressing the rumors directly on his Instagram Story, Pulisic wrote: “Please stop with the made up stories about my personal life.
Need to hold sources accountable it can affect people’s lives.”
The 27-year-old soccer star further clarified his stance by commenting on an additional social media post that amplified the story, simply labeling the situation as “fake news guys let’s stop with the silly rumor.”
The rumors appeared particularly unfounded given the stars’ current partners.
Sweeney has been recently linked to music mogul Scooter Braun, with the pair spotted together at a movie premiere for The Housemaid.
Meanwhile, Pulisic remains in a long-term relationship with golfer Alexa Melton, whom he has been dating since 2024.
With the 2026 World Cup approaching, Pulisic noted his desire to remain focused on his professional career rather than tabloid distractions.
