AC Milan have begun the formal process of trying to get a team registered in Serie C ahead of next season, according to a report.
As TMW recall, Juventus were the first to register an U23 team in the third tier of Italian football back in 2018 and then Atalanta joined last summer, but so far they are the only two clubs to go down that route.
Milan are interested in joining their two rivals and they are currently leading the chase, having already started the formal request process with the Lega Pro.
The Rossoneri second team project has gained strong momentum in the past few weeks, so much so that the other possible candidates at the moment have all been overtaken by Milan’s plans.
According to the information in possession of TMW, in fact, two other clubs that have been moving for some time to set up the second team are Fiorentina and Sassuolo.
From a future perspective, Torino are also ready to join their city rivals, but are completing the structures of the new training complex before taking the step.
To date, Milan are in pole position because there are various parameters involved before registration for Serie C can be confirmed, which were outlined in a recent report.
