Summary thumb|right|Some of the founders of Milan Foot-Ball and Cricket Club, December 1899. "We will be a team of devils. Our colours will be red like fire and black like the fear we will invoke in our opponents." 1899, Herbert Kilpin "Finally! After many unsuccessful attempts, Milan will finally have a football club. The aim of this new sports club is the very noble one of forming a Milanese team to compete in the Italian Cup next spring. For this purpose, the presidency has already made arrangements and obtained the vast Trotter premises for training. The new club warns that anyone who wishes to learn football will just have to go to the Trotter on the established days and will find instructors and playing companions." 15 December 1899, La Gazzetta dello Sporthttps://www.magliarossonera.it/img189900/nascita_18dic1899_1.jpg Football Italian magliarossonera.it 3 November 2023 AC Milan was founded as Milan Foot-Ball and Cricket Club in 1899 by English expatriate Herbert Kilpin, who wanted to give the city of Milan a club that would be able to compete with the main clubs of Turin and Genoa.
