#4 AC Milan
When talking about AC Milan, there’s no doubt you can call them a fallen giant, despite their constant presence in the top flight. With seven European Cup wins, Milan haven’t featured in the illustrious competition since 2014, whilst their best result in the competition in the past nine seasons has been a poor Round of 16 showing.
However, times are changing in Milan. Investors from China are pumping money into the club whilst they’re also making headway in the transfer market ahead of their Europa League campaign next season.
Andre Silva has arrived from FC Porto in a £32 million deal excluding future incentives, whilst Mateo Musacchio and Ricardo Rodriguez arrive for a combined £30 million fee to bolster their leaky defence and to finish transfers off for now, they’ve secured one of the brightest young prospects in European football today in Franck Kessie.
With Vincenzo Montella at the helm, the former AS Roma and Italian hitman could certainly provide impetus.
