Even before Stefano Pioli left AC Milan officially, there were questions about his next step in coaching, and recently, it has seemed like he could move to the Middle East where an interested party is awaiting. The Pioli debacle lasted far too long last season. On several occasions, the Italian coach was one game away from being sacked, and a decision did not arrive until the season’s conclusion. At this point, the situation had been ongoing for more than half of the season. For Pioli, though, he did not move on straight away, even though there was heavy interest in…
Dani Ceballos has had an inconsistent role at Real Madrid, alternating between standout performances and long spells on the bench. This lack of continuity has led him to consider other options in search of more playing time. The 28-year-old came close to leaving the club in the summer but eventually ended up staying put. However, come January, there could be movements again with the Spaniard once again attracting interest. AC Milan enter the race One of the most interested parties, as reported already, are Real Betis, the club where Ceballos developed and made his professional breakthrough. Having failed…
AC Milan will celebrate their 125th anniversary this season, and today, the club has announced a new collection with their partners Off-White which will be available during Milan Fashion Week. It is the third year of the partnership between the two iconic brands, and this latest collection aims to celebrate the partnership whilst also shining a light on the upcoming anniversary.

In previous encounters, AC Milan have been unable to beat Mo Salah – a record which they will hope to end tonight at San Siro in the Rossoneri’s first Champions League game of the 2024/25 season. There have been few players as consistent as Salah in recent years, and even at 32 years old his output is frightening for any opposition. However, the Egyptian winger has been a terrifying opposition since before his Liverpool days. As Gazzetta dello Sport (via Milan News) recalls, the winger has not lost against Milan – he has won four times drawing the other…
Federico Chiesa is part of Liverpool’s 23-man travelling squad for Tuesday’s Champions League opener with AC Milan. The forward is among those players who departed John Lennon Airport on Monday afternoon as the Reds get ready for their visit to San Siro on matchday one. Arne Slot’s men began their journey to Italy shortly before 4pm UK time, with a press conference scheduled for later this evening. The head coach will be joined by a member of his squad at the top table to preview the fixture with I Rossoneri. Liverpool travelling squad: Alisson, Gomez, Endo, Van Dijk, Konate, Diaz,…
AC Milan star Rafael Leao isn’t the star Liverpool fans should worry about for their Champions League clash, says the Italian media. The Reds travel to the San Siro following a disappointing home defeat to Nottingham Forest after previously winning their first three league games under Arne Slot. On the contrary, Milan have started the season in mixed form, drawing twice and losing to Parma before they bounced back with a much-needed 4-0 win over Venezia on home turf on Saturday evening. Gazzetto dello Sport’s Chief AC Milan writer Luca Bianchin, relayed that Leao isn’t the danger man for tonight’s…
Zlatan Ibrahimovic didn’t hesitate when naming the greatest player of all time, choosing one of the most prolific goal-scorers in soccer history. When it comes to legendary goal-scorers, Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s name is certainly in the conversation. The Swedish striker, who hung up his boots in 2023 at the age of 41, netted 580 goals across a remarkable 24-year career, ranking him 14th on the all-time scoring list. Only a select few players have outscored Ibrahimovic, who made his mark in some of the world’s top leagues. With his incredible ability to find the back of the net and his vast…
AC Milan started the season in an unforgivable way, but they are looking to make amends. Fortunately, they earned their first victory at the weekend, but with Liverpool and Inter next up, it must be progression and not regression. Since joining the club, Paulo Fonseca has certainly not had it easy. No one expected it to be easy, though. Already, he is facing questions about his position as head coach – questions which are not expected to go away soon – and some of his key players have starred in controversy. To top it off, Milan started the season…
Tottenham and AC Milan were involved in a strange deal during the summer transfer window. Somehow, Tottenham convinced AC Milan to spend £13m on Emerson Royal – despite his incredibly underwhelming three years in N17. In fact, Emerson Royal is already receiving scathing reviews from the Italian media for his wobbly start at the San Siro. Now – after offloading a piece of deadwood onto the Italian giants – Tottenham are set to frustrate AC Milan again in 2025… AC Milan want Johnny Cardoso – but Tottenham can block move A story from Calciomercato now states that…
Even before Stefano Pioli’s departure was finalised, fans romanticised about the possibility of Roberto De Zerbi joining AC Milan. In the end, it did not happen, but Filippo Galli has spoken about the move and how it could have happened. The post-Pioli process was rather strange. Throughout the season, Milan flirted consistently with the idea of parting ways with the 58-year-old, but they never made the final call, at least until the end of the season. As it is understood, there was a continued ‘weighing-up’ effort, where the Rossoneri didn’t want to risk a season without any positives, but…
