The two jerseys appear to be identical.“MEGG!! Do you have something to tell us?!” the fan page questioned. The fan page also asked, “New man alert!??!”Fans in the comments appeared to support the theory. “That would explain the Italy trip. New man of the moment,” one post said.Moroney and Pulisic were spotted together at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row bar in Nashville in July, according to Whiskey Riff.The sighting came after Pulisic reportedly took his cousin to Moroney’s concert in Miami that month. The three took a picture together backstage.Moroney told Cosmopolitan in early July that she is single.“It’s really nice that this is one of the first tours I’ve been on where I’m not dating anyone, so I literally have no distractions,” she said July 8. “And that sounds really silly, but there have been a lot of big moments and fun times that have been ruined by a guy for me. It’s nice to just have a clear head.”Moroney’s Cloud 9 tour started in May. It will conclude Oct. 1 in the United Kingdom.“There is something about having a crush that’s exciting, and when my tour wraps up in October, when I’m back from Europe, I’ll maybe be on the prowl again,” she told Cosmopolitan.Matt Connolly is a Sports Trending Reporter for PennLive, writing about the NFL, college sports and other topics.
