Current season

Associazione Calcio Milan Youth Sector (Italian: Settore giovanile dell'Associazione Calcio Milan) is the youth system of Italian football club AC Milan. The Youth Sector is made up of various boys' and girls' squads divided by age groups. Starting from September 2023 Vincenzo Vergine is the Head of the Youth Sector, replacing Angelo Carbone.

Primavera (under-19)

[edit]

The Primavera team is men's under-19 squad and the highest level team within the set-up. They currently play in the top-tier Campionato Primavera 1 and the Coppa Italia Primavera, as well as representing the club in the UEFA Youth League, where they either qualify through their domestic league or the first team qualifies for the UEFA Champions League.

Milan won his first (and so far) only Championship in 1964-65 season (the third ever championship to be assigned), while he has won two national cups in 1984-85 and 2009-10 seasons.

The Primavera team trains at Milanello alongside the first team and they play the majority of their home games at the Vismara Sports Centre in Milan, which also serves as the training facility for all other teams in the set-up.
