Verified Timeline
Lore & Background
The club was founded on 9 March 1908 after a split within the Milan Foot-Ball and Cricket Club (now AC Milan), and won its first championship in 1910. Since its formation, the club has won 39 domestic trophies, including 21 league titles, 10 Coppa Italia, and 8 Supercoppa Italiana. From 2006 to 2010, the club won five successive league titles, equaling the all-time record at that time. It has won the European Cup/Champions League three times. Its latest win in 2010 completed an unprecedented Italian seasonal treble, with Inter also winning the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia in the same year. The club has also won three UEFA Cups, two Intercontinental Cups, and one FIFA Club World Cup.
In Their Own Story
The final whistle blows at San Siro, but the silence that follows is heavy with anticipation. A sea of blue and black waves erupts as the referee checks his watch one last time. The captain steps forward, his boots stained with the grass of a ninety-minute battle, eyes locked on the small silver shield being uncased by the officials. As he lifts it, the roar from the Curva Nord shakes the very foundations of the stadium, a sound that echoes back to 1908 and every dreamer who ever wore the shirt. The stars above the crest seem to burn brighter tonight, one more added to the collection, sealing another chapter in the eternal saga of the Nerazzurri.
