Thanks to the program, the AC Milan Youth Academy has the chance to get into contact and work in synergy with the most important universities in Milan and beyond.

Through this project, A.C. Milan became an important and innovative cultural and methodological reference club on the Italian football scene. No other club has such a well-built and complete internship program.

The presence of the Interns significantly enhances the human resources available to the Youth Academy, with very low business costs, guaranteeing the possibility of personalized projects and approaches with numerous players in the technical, athletic, rehabilitation and nutritional fields.

The internship programs enabled the training of personnel, subsequently hired in the workforce, with specific skills that are consistent with the methodological approach of the club and with sustainable business costs.
