AUGUST, IMPORTANT TO GET OFF TO A GOOD START

It's been an intense month of work both at home and around the world, including some initial friendlies. All of our teams are ready to get going in competitive action, and August will be a busy month on many fronts.

MEN'S FIRST TEAM
Our tour of the Asia-Pacific region is now behind us, and Allegri's Rossoneri are back in Italy. The Rossoneri are back in training on Tuesday 5th ahead of their trip to Ireland and England for a taste of the Premier League (Leeds in Dublin, Chelsea at Stamford Bridge). Then, the competitive season begins with the first round of the Coppa Italia, against Bari, before league games against Cremonese and Lecce. The Rossoneri will be hoping for the best possible start.
