Milan Futuro (lit.'Future [AC] Milan'), occasionally referred to as Milan U23, is a professional football club based in Milan, Lombardy, Italy, which acts as the reserve team of Serie A club AC Milan. Founded on 27 June 2024, the club competes in Serie C.

History

AC Milan's reserve team was admitted to Serie C on 27 June 2024 to fill a vacancy created by Ancona's exclusion. With Daniele Bonera as their inaugural head coach, the team was registered under the denomination of Milan Futuro (Future Milan).[4] For their first season, the team was put into Girone B of Serie C, usually intended for teams from Central Italy, due to the presence of other reserves team from Northern Italy in their respective group (Girone A). This was due to not saturate a single group with too many professional reserves teams.[5]

Stadium

The team will play home games in nearby Solbiate Arno, a comune in the Province of Varese.
