Don't Add Rubbish Information! -Adri K.-
I saw someone added information that Buffon and Ibrahimovic (he wrote 'Ibraimovic') will join Milan. He added those two names at the bottom of 'In' list in transfer section. I've deleted it.

Supporters
I'm not exactly sure about the removal of that section because the information are quite relative. However everyone need to know about that, so the Supporters section must be restored.--Adri K. 16:23, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Whoa... innecesary information?. I'm sure the one who made that deletion has never put a foot on a stadium and it's a "TV fan". Every club page should have information about what the members of that club like or why they feel that on their teams. It's valuable information for the true football fan who likes to know about real and important history of the clubs, aside of wich famous player played there. The restore of that info is necessary for the football culture. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bauta (talk • contribs) 00:50, 18 October 2006 UTC.

Milan is not 3rd but 2nd in number of club supporters in Italy as erroneous stated in the main wikipedia Milan page

There's a big mistake guys!!! Everybody knows that the supporters of milan are the second of italy as quantity!

As written in a more recent article (august 2007) of La Repubblica, and as already written in an other article of Wikipedia (associazione calcio milan), the supporters of ac milan are more than the inter ones.

Here is what is written in the wikipedia article:

Secondo un sondaggio effettuato dalla società demoscopica Demos, commissionato dal quotidiano La Repubblica e pubblicato il 24 agosto 2007, il Milan risulta avere il 23% del tifo nazionale, dietro alla Juventus (28%) e davanti all'Inter (16%)[1]. In un sondaggio sul tifo calcistico del luglio 2007 ad opera dell'istituto giudato da Renato Mannheimer (Ispo), pubblicato da La Gazzetta dello Sport, il Milan ha il 12,4% delle preferenze del campione, dietro la Juventus (17,4%), davanti all'Inter (11%), e con il primato (20,3%) nella fascia Under-24, la quota più importante del mercato del tifo calcistico. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chicco82 (talk • contribs) 15:13, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

I have removed this image from the article, and placed it in here for now. Partly because the image does not show Kaka actually scoring against Manchester United as stated in the comment.

Fair use rationale for Image:AC Milan.png
Image:AC Milan.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

grammar, plurality
This page has some grammatical problems. The most obvious one, to me, is the change in plurality of “AC Milan.” Personally, I would say the term is singular, but it is often given plural verbs. Maybe there’s an inconsistency with American/European spellings, but regardless it should at least be consistent. For example:

"Associazione Calcio Milan… is an Italian professional football club…. AC Milan have won 18 officially recognised international titles… The club have won what is today known as the UEFA Champions League on seven occasions…  AC Milan is the second most successful club with 17 league titles; only Juventus have won more (27)."

I tried to fix this problem a few weeks ago but the article was reverted within the day, so obviously someone disagrees with me. Please explain yourself.Panda bearx (talk) 06:59, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Ignazio Abate is a midfielder
This is something that should be corrected. For a while he was a forward. I did edit this section making the change but someone keeps changing it back. He is considered a winger, a position on the midfield. You can even see this by going to his page. He's a winger that plays on the right... making him a midfielder... not a forward.

While that link points to the "serie a" website, I dont think that is good enough. Serie A is not Ac Milan. A single line that says "temperano" is not good enough.

Latin Cup is perfectly "official"
Why is the Latin Cup called an "unofficial title"? The tournament was PREPARED by the 4 football federations of the countries involved, so I think that probes that It's "official" (and remember that only the champions of each league were able to compete, except if they resgined). This tile was created before the UEFA itself, and it had a lot of popularity in that ages. It's true that it was neither organised by UEFA or FIFA, but it was by RFEF and the other latin federations.

Hey guys i saw that David Beckham isnt on the list anymore, might wanna add him back as he is still playing for AC Milan. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MiniDude (talk • contribs) 11:35, 15 September 2010 (UTC)


 * No, he isn't. See here. Luxic (talk) 12:01, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Hmm, i thought he signed for another Loan session, meaning he plays for Los Angeles Galaxy. But because their league ends earlier than the Italian league he would go to AC Milan to continue playing football there, while La Galaxy still being his main Club. Kinda a weird contract but i think thats how it is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MiniDude (talk • contribs) 23:35, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually the deal was the opposite, Beckham plays for the LA Galaxy. He had another loan deal starting on January 1, 2010 to play for AC Milan.  While obviously, his stint in Milan was unofficially cut short because of his injury, it technically ended on June 30 and he is now back with his main team, Los Angeles.  --Volcanopele (talk) 02:48, 16 September 2010 (UTC)


 * I think he's also said he's not going back recently? Presumably since getting into the England team is no longer likely. Bertcocaine (talk) 09:59, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Stadium Name
In this article, the stadium is referred to as 'San Siro'. The Inter Milan page has 'Stadio Giuseppe Meazza'. Surely the two should be the same? Bertcocaine (talk) 10:00, 16 October 2010 (UTC)


 * I've concluded they should be the same, and amended both to include the official name, the common use name, and the city. Bertcocaine (talk) 13:00, 16 October 2010 (UTC)


 * There's no need to include both names. San Siro, Milan is enough. Luxic (talk) 18:41, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Edit request from Trafalgar1805, 16 July 2011
alessandro trabatoni (chiropractor) and the rest of the medical team he worked with have been replaced and no longer work for nor have ANY affiliation with ac milan.

Milan have changed their Medical staff and this is what they had to say on their official site ACMilan.com:

"A.C. Milan communicates that Dr Rodolfo Tavana is taking over as Chief Medical Officer on July 1. At the same time, the club thanks Dr Gianluca Melegati and his staff for the work done over the course of the season. Dr Melegati explained his departure with the following words: "Unfortunately, the numerous engagements prevent me and my staff, formed by Dr Maurizio Gevi and Dr Alessandro Trabattoni, from continuing our collaboration with A.C. Milan. We remain emotionally attached to club and to its exceptional personnel, along with whom we had the chance to contribute to the team's Serie A campaign that finished with A.C. Milan winning its 18th league title" In addition, Dr Tavana has already worked for Milan, from the beginning of the Berlusconi era and until 2003, as Club Doctor and Coordinator of the Medical Department. His return to the Rossoneri club has a special meaning.

Casciavit
Casciavit è un termine offensivo che oggi non si usa più per i cambiamenti delle condizioni di vita dei tifosi, lo reputo desueto e quindi andrebbe levato, oltre che dimostrato. E' uno sfottò e non trovo giusto che sia presente nel profilo. Con l'avvento di Berlusconi nel Milan direi che oggi la maggior parte dei tifosi sia più di destra che di sinistra, quindi non mi sembra che l'animo popolare appartieni al tifo milanista e all'elettore di destra. Se l'Inter fu fondata da borghesi erano pur sempre dissidenti del Milan e quindi si evince che lo stesso Milan era frequentato da persone nobili.

N.B. Se proprio il termine "casciavit" deve essere presente toglietelo dall'intestazione perchè con la società milan non centra niente semmai riguarda i tifosi. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 19MAuRO87 (talk • contribs) 17:41, 8 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Innanzitutto, siamo su Wikipedia inglese, perciò dovresti scrivere in inglese, cosicché tutti ti capiscano. Detto questo, molte delle cose che hai scritto non sono esatte. Chi l'ha detto che i tifosi del Milan siano prevalentemente di destra? Io sono un tifosissimo rossonero eppure ti assicuro non condivido le politiche di Berlusconi e non lo voterei mai, indipendentemente dai successi che ha ottenuto con il Milan. Inoltre, non credo nemmeno che 'casciavit' sia un termine denigratorio, visto che qualcuno ancora lo usa con oroglio — vedi qui, qui o qui. [Translation: first of all, we are on the English Wikipedia, therefore you should write in English so that everyone understands you. That said, many of the things you wrote are incorrect. Who said that Milan supporters are mostly right-wing? I am a die hard Milan fan but I can assure you I don't agree with Berlusconi's policies and I would never dare to vote for him, regardless of how much success he got with Milan. Moreover, I don't think 'casciavit' is a derogatory term, since there's still someone using it with pride — see here, here or here.] Luxic (talk) 21:56, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Infobox name
There is an edit war brewing over the "clubname" parameter in the infobox. One editor is putting in "Milan" while I keep putting in "AC Milan". According to the infobox's instructions here the "clubname" parameter is for "The commonly-used name of the club". So the question is, what is the commonly used name of the club? In English media (and this is an English language encyclopedia) the most commonly used name appears to be "AC Milan"/"A.C. Milan". I understand that in Italy and even other parts of the world the club is simply known as "Milan", but again, this is the English language Wikipedia not the Italian Wikipedia and therefore we should go with "AC Milan". Thoughts anyone? SQGibbon (talk) 19:41, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree, in English the club is commonly known as A.C. Milan. Ilikeeatingwaffles (talk) 21:32, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Like it was before and it has always been, the clubname "Milan" should be puton the right top of the page, the place for the short name of the clubs. Milan is not different from the other clubs, where it is written for example Real Madrid and not Real Madrid C.F., Manchester United and not Manchester United F.C., Arsenal and not F.C. Arsenal, Chelsea and not F.C. Chelsea, Bayern Munchen and not FC Bayern Munchen and so on...--Blocci (talk) 21:54, 20 September 2011 (UTC)


 * The instructions for the "clubname" parameter, which you can read here, is "The commonly-used name of the club" which says nothing about using the "short" name of the club. The most commonly used name in  English media is AC Milan.  "Real Madrid" is the most commonly used name in English media for "Real Madrid C.F."/"Real Madrid Club de Fútbol" which is why it's used in that article (and not because it's the shortened form). This is the same for the other examples you mentioned.  So when it comes to commonly used names A.C. Milan is different than the other clubs you mentioned because that's how it is commonly referred to. SQGibbon (talk) 00:52, 21 September 2011 (UTC)


 * First, please stop changing the name before a consensus has been reached on this matter. Second, I agree with SQGibbon. Milan in fact is different from the other clubs you mentioned precisely because of the common use in English, which is AC Milan. There are clear instructions on the clubname parameter, and according to those, AC Milan or A.C. Milan should be used. Burakov (talk) 15:21, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

"A.C. Milan" is already use as the name of the page. Because the club is Italian and it is called "Milan" by the vaste majority of its fans, the name on the top of the infobox should be "Milan", like it ha always been.--82.55.210.22 (talk) 22:11, 21 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Most articles have the name of the article as the name in the infobox, it's just how things work out and there's nothing wrong with that. Also, this is a general encyclopedia and not a wiki for football or AC Milan fans.  As such we should use the name most used in English media even if that's not the same as what most fans use.  We're here to serve the average person and not football fans. SQGibbon (talk) 20:51, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

This makes no sense...
As of 2010, Milan is the third most supported team in Italy,[11] and the seventh most supported team in Europe, ahead of any other Italian team

Clearly that makes no sense... 86.173.237.214 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:34, 4 December 2011 (UTC).


 * Let's suppose Team A has 12 million supporters in Italy and 25 million in the whole Europe, while Team B has 10 million in Italy and 30 million in Europe. It would mean that Team B is more supported than Team A in Europe, despite being less supported in Italy. So, it does make sense. Luxic (talk) 21:57, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Gianni Rivera
Why isn't there anything on Gianni Rivera, The Golden Boy Of AC Milan. In Italy when someone talks AC Milan he also talks Gianni Rivera. Gianni Rivera was the best player for Milan before Berlusconi bought ACM and made it an ultra rich club. But anyways... Gianni Rivera was among the best players that have ever lived... He was indeed the Golden Boy, and there should be a whole section on him in the ACM Wikipedia page. Remember when someone talks AC MIlan he talks Gianni RIvera. Of course I love the squad now, I never got to see Rivera live, but from the stories of the old Milan fans, my father and etc. Gianni Rivera was the Golden Boy. I love Ibra, Robinho, Pato, Boateng and etc. But i respect the statement and support it because its true that: When you talk AC MIlan You Talk Gianni Rivera.

Supporters and Rivalries
Under item "Supporters and Rivalries" it was correctly written about an ancient distinction between AC Milan supporters, who mainly came from the working class, and FC Inter supporters, who mainly came from the middle class. To be complete, in the past it was said and written that AC Milan, the oldest team of the city, bearing the name of the city, was also supported by most of the old families of the milanese aristocracy. That said, I consider inaccurate and totally devoid of reliable sources to write that this part of the working class who came from southern Italy supported AC Milan. In fact FC Inter was supported (and is still nowadays supported) by many Southern italy people transferred to milan and even more FC Juventus as historically known. And It remains to be shown the supposed milanese origin of the middle class who often came from other areas of northern Italy or from southern Italy. So I suggest to delete the reference to the geographic origins of the two sides because this is completely arbitrary and there is no source to prove it, especially for a complex city like Milan. The italian page does not contain these inaccuracies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.35.55.54 (talk) 10:13, 25 March 2012 (UTC)


 * I've removed the statement about Southern immigrants. However, I suggest you to create an account and edit the page yourself adding the proper references. Luxic (talk) 17:43, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for your suggestion but the page is protected so I thought it was better to ask you to edit this page. Just a note: I suggest you to remove also “tipically milanese” because (as explained in italian page) was not referring to the middle class but only to the nickname “bauscia” given to FC Inter supporters, like tipically milanese was the nickname “casciavit” given to AC Milan supporters.

Sale of Kakà in 2009 did not break world football transfer record
The following statement in the "Club statistics and records" section is wrong:

"The sale of Kaká to Real Madrid in 2009, broke the 8-year-old world football transfer record held by Zinedine Zidane, costing the Spanish club £56 million".

Kakà was sold to Real for EUR68 mln fee, while Zidane had been sold to the same club for EUR75 mln in 2001. Any comparison should be made on EUR numbers (since both clubs are EUR accounting) and not on converted amounts. Evidence is furthermore provided by the corresponding wikipedia page on the subject: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_(association_football)#Players. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.129.121.63 (talk) 14:55, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Gian Filippo Felicioli is currently playing for A.C. Milan Primavera team. Stefan Simić suffered a serious injury last season, when he was on loan, and apparently this led to him being unable to find a team this year (though there could be other reasons, I'm just guessing). He currently trains with the team (just like his fellow Nnamdi Oduamadi) and he even featured as an unused sub in the Coppa Italia game against Sampdoria, but in spite of that, ACMilan.com does not list him as a first team member and that's why we don't either. I assume he's going to find a new team in the upcoming transfer window, either on loan or permanently, but we can only wait and see. Luxic (talk) 14:25, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
