The Milan giant finished the penultimate season without trophies and, by its end, without a coach. The inexperienced Kivu, who replaced Simone Inzaghi, did not start especially convincingly. However, he eventually managed to secure a “golden double” that season.
Their neighbor from the suburbs played in the top division from 2022 to 2025, but failed in the penultimate season. Fortunately, they managed to take third place in Serie B and then win the playoffs.
