AC Milan Clinches 2025/26 Italian Super Cup Berth

AC Milan has secured a place in the 2025/26 Italian Super Cup following their impressive 3-0 victory over Inter Milan in the Coppa Italia semi-final. This triumph not only advances them to the Coppa Italia final but also guarantees their participation in the Super Cup Final Four.

The 2026 edition of the Italian Super Cup will continue to use the four-team format, a system implemented in the past two seasons. While the tournament structure has been confirmed, the location remains undecided. The final decision on whether it will be held in Saudi Arabia or elsewhere is expected by the end of April.

The teams vying for spots in the next Super Cup include:

Coppa Italia finalist: AC Milan
Second Coppa Italia finalist: Bologna or Empoli
Serie A champion: Inter or Napoli (with Atalanta, Bologna, Juventus, Lazio, and Roma mathematically still in contention)
Serie A runner-up: Likely Inter or Napoli

This achievement marks a significant milestone for AC Milan, as they pursue their first Coppa Italia trophy in 22 years and secure direct qualification for the Europa League group stage. The team’s performance, led by striker Luka Jovic, demonstrates their strength and determination heading into these crucial matches.
