AC Milan remain one of the fixed points of Italian football: founded in 1899, housed at the Stadio San Siro, and still carrying the scale that comes with the name. Their 2026-27 campaign has them fourth in Serie A, with a season that has also included the Europa League league phase.
The squad is large and relatively young: 37 players, with an average age of 24. Its market value sits at around £475.5m, according to Transfermarkt, which gives a fair indication of the resources and depth involved.
Their league form has been mixed rather than smooth, though two recent wins – 2-0 at home to Venezia and 2-1 away to Torino – have steadied the picture. At San Siro they have been notably secure, averaging two goals scored and none conceded per match, while away from home they are still carrying a decent attacking threat at two goals per game, with one conceded on average.
There is no obvious scoring outlier in the figures supplied so far, with Alphadjo Cissè, Gonçalo Ramos and Adrien Rabiot each on one goal. For Celtic supporters, the relevant point is straightforward: Milan are a young, expensive squad sitting high in Serie A, with strong home numbers and enough away output to require proper respect.
📈 Key stats and insights
⚔️ How they compare to Celtic
Compared with Celtic, who sit top with 15 points, Milan present a compact home defence but a less consistent attacking threat; Celtic have the edge in league form and consistency, while Milan pose a specific danger at San Siro through defensive organisation and collective goal contributions rather than a single talisman.
