AC Milan 26-27 Kit Font Mix-Up
The clash marked the European debut for Milan's 26-27 away kit, which showcased elegant gold names and numbers complete with intricate interior patterning and a laurel wreath framing the club crest at the base of each digit. This is the first time since the 2023-24 season that the Rossoneri have utilized a bespoke typeface for continental competition. However, the rollout was not consistent across the entire starting eleven, leaving Maignan's purple goalkeeper jersey with standard domestic lettering in white.
