Newcastle United cannot compete when comparing their European silverware to AC Milan’s.
The Magpies have won two trophies that are now defunct: The Inter-Cities Fairs Cup in 1969 and the Intertoto Cup in 2006. AC Milan’s trophy haul is a little more impressive, racking up seven UEFA Champions League titles. Only Real Madrid have won more than the Italian giants.
Yet, AC Milan have not won the tournament since beating Liverpool in the 2006/07 final. The Rossoneri suffered a fall from grace in the years that followed, winning just one Scudetto in a 17-year period.
They did win the Serie A title in 2021/22 and reached the Champions League semi-finals in the following season.
Newcastle United are a club with a huge fanbase, but haven’t won a domestic league title in almost 100 years. Under Eddie Howe’s management, Newcastle finally made a return to Europe’s elite football competition in the 2023/24 season, following a 21-year hiatus.
Backed by Saudi owners, Newcastle are bidding to compete at the top table of European football.
Prior to the 2023/24 season, Newcastle and AC Milan had never faced one another in a competitive match.
Despite a lack of history, the atmosphere is sure to be electric when Newcastle host the Rossoneri at St James' Park.
Sandro Tonali is the obvious connection between these two clubs. The young central midfielder was on his way to becoming a club legend at AC Milan before signing for Newcastle United in July 2023.
Tonali joined the Magpies in a €70m deal, making him the most expensive Italian player of all-time. Newcastle were drawn with AC Milan in Group F of the 2023/24 Champions League, setting Tonali up with a speedy return to the San Siro.
Patrick Kluivert, Fabriccio Coloccini, and Andreas Andersson are three more players to have played for both Newcastle and AC Milan, although none of them moved directly from one club to the other.
