During the 1966–67 season Milan Associazione Calcio competed in Serie A, Coppa Italia, Mitropa Cup and Cup of the Alps.
Summary
The new manager of AC Milan for the 1966-67 season was former Rossoneri player Arturo Silvestri. The main signings of the summer transfer market session were defenders Roberto Rosato and Angelo Anquilletti, as well as forward Pierino Prati, while club's legend Cesare Maldini left the club after twelve seasons.[2]
The main achievement of the season was the victory of the Coppa Italia, the first in Milan's history, which gave the club the opportunity to participate in the 1967-68 Cup Winners' Cup the following season. The trophy was achieved by eliminating Pisa, Modena and Torino in the first elimination matches, Lecco in the quarter-finals and Juventus in the semifinals, and beating Padova 1-0 in the final thanks to a goal from Amarildo.[3] Gianni Rivera was the top scorer of the competition, with seven goals. In the Serie A, Milan concluded in eighth place in the final standings (the worst performance of the decade), while in the Mitropa Cup they were eliminated in the round of 16 by Dinamo Zagreb.
In 1966 AC Milan moved its headquarters from Palazzo Castiglioni in Corso Venezia, Milan, to via Filippo Turati 3, in a building that retain this function until 2014, when Casa Milan was inaugurated, as new headquarters of the club.[4]
