AC Milan will soon find out their opponents for the 2023-24 group stage of the UEFA Champions League, and there are certainly a wide range of possibilities.
After receiving Chelsea, Red Bull Salzburg, and Dinamo Zagreb in the previous iteration of Europe’s top club competition, Milan are awaiting news of who they will receive this time around, according to this morning’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below).
The Rossoneri have changed pots, moving from 1 to 3, and now face a challenging group. According to the article, Newcastle United, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich would be the worst nightmares.
Feyenoord, RB Leipzig, and RC Lens, on the other hand, would likely be the best result, though they would all have something to say about it.
Pioli, on the other hand, will have faith in his players regardless of their opponents. From Christian Pulisic to Ruben Loftus-Cheek, new international signings have come from the transfer market. All of the existing young core are a year older and wiser, and they are frequently testing themselves at a high level.
Milan will also keep a close eye on Napoli’s outcomes. Inter will almost probably be one of two Italian teams to compete in the FIFA Club World Cup, which will debut in 2025, with the Rossoneri perhaps competing with last season’s Scudetto winners for the other berth.
