Under manager Massimiliano Allegri, AC Milan had a challenging Serie A campaign, finishing 8th, far below their historical standards and missing out on Champions League qualification. The squad featured stars like Mario Balotelli, Robinho, Riccardo Montolivo, and Alessandro Nesta, but injuries, inconsistent form, and lack of depth undermined performance. Milan’s attacking play struggled for cohesion, and defensive lapses were frequent despite experienced players. In European competition, they were eliminated in the group stage of the Champions League, and domestic cup runs were short-lived. The season marked a period of transition, highlighting the need for squad renewal and strategic rebuilding.
