Milan for Football Fans
Travel & Tourism
Is this free article highly relevant to this category?

Forget all the stuff you?ve heard about Milan being the ?fashion capital of Europe?, Italy?s second largest city actually has two passions: clothes and football.
The Milanese have good reason to love the glorious game, because their city boasts not just one but two of Europe?s leading clubs ? FC Internazionale (referred to as ?Inter? Milan) and AC Milan. It's the presence of these two colossuses of football which makes the town a mecca for serious football fans from around the world.

A Temple of Football

Imagine if Manchester United and Manchester City shared exactly the same stadium, one venue hosting two mega clubs! Well, this is the situation here. Both Inter and AC share the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium (known locally as San Siro). A vacation to this hallowed football ground will see you walking in the footsteps of all the legendary players who've played for both teams: Paolo Maldini, Gianni Rivera, Roberto Baggio? to name but a few.

The stadium has its museum (and gift shop, of course) in order to wander around consuming the old photos, shirts and boots owned by both clubs? most legendary players, and also the impressive trophy case. Then pop in to the shop and purchase yourself just a little footballing memorabilia.

This is such an exciting stop for most football fans that you?d be excused for forgetting to check on into your hotel first, and taking your Malpensa shuttle transfer straight here from the airport instead.

More Footie Sights

As soon as you?ve walked the hallowed ground at San Siro, why not go the whole hog to check out the Museo Mondo Milan at the team?s headquarters, Casa Milan.

A museum dedicated to AC Milan, this uses cutting-edge technology to immerse visitors in this fully interactive, football experience. Stand in the club?s virtual trophy room, pay attention to the players talking about their time at the club, and discover more concerning the research that goes into keeping the players match fit.

Also at Casa Milan, is the official AC store where in fact the latest kit and souvenirs can be bought.

Watch a Game

Getting tickets for a casino game could be tricky (virtually impossible for derbies) but you can get a taste of the atmosphere by standing shoulder to shoulder with the passionate locals because they watch their team in one of the city?s many sports bars. My favourite?s include:

? Murphy?s Law ? I often stop off here for a game when I?ve finished taxiing people to the airport as a driver for the Malpensa shuttle service. It can get pretty crowded and the atmosphere?s always electric ? Old Fox ? Another favourite haunt, this bar shows every Serie A casino game to a rowdy, local crowd ? Hall of Fame ? This is a serious sports bar for serious sports fans, the owners live and breathe football and if there?s check here of this on TV, they?ll watch motorsports, skiing or anything else competitive

Getting There

The great news is, it?s seriously an easy task to get here with flights out from the UK with a range of budget airlines. Be sure to book your Malpensa shuttle with Shuttle Direct online before you leave home and, who knows, I might be there to meet you as well as your mates when you touch down!
