AC Milan
AC Milan, based at San Siro in Milan with a capacity of 75,923, have won 19 Serie A titles and 7 UEFA Champions League trophies, second only to Real Madrid in European competition.
The San Siro is one of the landmarks of world football and the only major stadium shared by two clubs from the same city, with Inter Milan occupying the same ground. It opened in 1926 as a 35,000-capacity stadium and was expanded repeatedly, the last time for the 1990 World Cup. Both clubs have announced plans to build a new shared stadium nearby, which would end the San Siro era. The decision over San Siro’s future is among the most contentious urban planning debates in Italian sport.
Milan’s greatest period was under Arrigo Sacchi and then Fabio Capello in the late 1980s and 1990s, when Van Basten, Gullit, and Rijkaard formed the Dutch nucleus of a side that won back-to-back European Cups in 1989 and 1990 and four Serie A titles in six seasons. The 4-0 victory over Steaua Bucharest in the 1989 European Cup final in Barcelona remains one of the most complete performances in the competition’s history.
Stefano Pioli ended Milan’s 11-year wait for a Serie A title in 2022. The current squad is managed by Paulo Fonseca, with Rafael Leão’s electric left-sided play and Olivier Giroud’s replacement, Álvaro Morata, forming the primary attacking threat. Theo Hernández as a marauding left back remains one of the most dynamic players in European football in his position.
