AC Milan remain one of Italian football’s fixed points: founded in 1899, based at the Stadio San Siro, and still carrying the scale that comes with the name. Their current squad is valued at around £475.5m, according to Transfermarkt, with 41 players and an average age of 23.
In the 2026-27 season, Milan sit fifth in Serie A. They have also been involved in the Coppa Italia third round and the Europa League league phase, with the league campaign offering the clearest measure of where they are: competitive, productive, but not without the usual bruises.
Their recent league run has been uneven rather than alarming. A 2-4 home defeat to Bologna came after wins over Udinese and Atalanta, with draws against Sassuolo and Lazio also in the sequence. At San Siro, the attack has carried weight, averaging 2.5 goals per match, though the concession rate of 1.5 keeps matters less comfortable than it should be.
Alphadjo Cissè leads their scoring with seven goals, followed by Adrien Rabiot on four, while Gonçalo Ramos and Diego Moreira have three apiece. Away from home, Milan still carry a threat, averaging 1.6 goals scored and one conceded per match.
For Celtic supporters, Milan’s current profile is clear enough: a young, high-value Serie A side with genuine attacking output, sitting just off the top end of the table and still relevant on the European stage.

⚔️ How they compare to Celtic
Compared with Celtic, who sit top of the table with twenty-eight points, Milan present a different profile: Celtic have the clear edge in league position and consistency, while Milan boast a more potent home attack but a middling defence and greater volatility; overall Celtic look stronger across the campaign whereas Milan are dangerous in bursts, especially at San Siro.
