Stadium	Up until the 19th of September 1926, when they eventually found a permanent home, Milan had to travel from ground to ground playing their “home” games. They played in Campo Trotter, Campo Acquabella, Velodromo Sempione, Campo Pirelli and even Arena Civica (which would become Inter’s stadium) to name a few. In 1925 President Pirelli began the construction of the San Siro Stadium at his own expense. The stadium was reachable by tram, a problem in a city which experienced frequent power cuts. In 1935 the stadium was acquired by the local authorities and from the 1947-1948 campaign, it became Inter’s home as well. From 1980 it was re-named the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, in honour of the former star of both clubs. The stadium has undergone several renovations, but despite this, since the mid-2010s, Milan have been keen on building a new home for themselves. Various project proposals have come and gone, but the latest is a joint agreement with Inter. If it comes to fruition it would see the construction of a new stadium on the same site as the Giuseppe Meazza which would be bought from the local authority for €100 million.
Recent History	It was 1986 when the entrepreneur and media tycoon Silvio Berlusconi bought Milan. At the time the club was in dire straits and on the verge of failure. The following 3 decades became the most successful in their long history. A quite incredible trophy haul included 8 Serie A titles, 1 Coppa Italia, 6 Italian Super Cups, 5 Champions Leagues, 5 UEFA Super Cups and 1 FIFA Club World Cup. The 2010s have been more sobering with Milan seldom fighting for the top places and often failing to achieve European qualification. In December 2016 they won their 7th Italian Super Cup, which was the last trophy obtained during Berlusconi’s Presidency. A few months later he sold the club to the Chinese entrepreneur Li Yonghong. His reign would last just one year as he defaulted on a loan. He was replaced by Elliott Management, an American investment fund who had loaned Li €300 million in order to complete his takeover. Milan were excluded from the 2019-2020 European competitions for breaching the UEFA financial fair play rules. The 'rossoneri' won their 19th Serie A title & first for 11 years in the 21/22 season. With Stefano Pioli at the helm, Milan finished 2 points ahead of city rivals Inter.

Milan started the past season with plenty of confidence, winning 7 out of the initial 8 games and they seemed capable of posing a threat again for the title. However, come mid-October, their performances became irregular and wins rarer to come. With Inter and Juventus running, they looked doomed to a 3rd-place finish. Having slightly improved their performances, they managed to make it back to the second place by March, profiting from Juventus troubles and remained there until the end, despite slowing down in the final 7 weeks, when they won only once. If they can be happy for finishing second, Milan cannot really be happy for their early Champions League, Europa League and Coppa Italia exits. And the management did not look happy at all as they ended up parting ways with coach Stefano Pioli. Paulo Fonseca, who had a mixed first Italian experience with Roma, will thus be the new man at the helm. Milan were not particularly active over the summer but they still lost a couple of important players. First and foremost, 37-year-old Giroud, capable of 49 goals in 132 games overall, decided to test MLS football at Los Angeles FC. 31-year-old Morata, coming from a great performance in the Euro 2024, seems to be his perfect replacement up-front. Then, they also opted to let go centre-back Kjaer, as well on the wrong half of the 30s. In came 23-year-old Pavlovic, who did well in his two seasons at Red Bull Salzburg. He is set to become a starter in the heart of the defence but Milan are on the hunt for another centre-back. More players are actually expected to quit as Milan did have a rather large squad, among them striker Origi and defender Ballo Toure. On the other hand, they saw 1 player returning after having a great season on loan at Bologna: Saelemaekers could be given the chance to leave some mark in his second stint at the club. Milan are still looking for a back-up goalie, a central midfielder and an attacking midfielder.
