AC Milan is once again calling on its fans to take part in selecting the three new members of the Hall of Fame presented by Emirates, the initiative through which the Club celebrates and honours the players who have left an indelible mark on Rossoneri history.
Launched as part of AC Milan's 125th Anniversary, the Hall of Fame has already welcomed Franco Baresi as an Honorary Member, appointed in his 50th year with the Club, as well as three Fan-Elected Members: forwards Filippo Inzaghi, Andriy Shevchenko and Marco van Basten. In the coming weeks, the spotlight will turn to the greatest midfielders who have worn the Rossoneri colours, embodying the Club's values both on and off the pitch.
A total of 30 candidates will compete for the three available places in the Class of 2026, starting Thursday 12 March. The selection process will be led by the fans, who will be able to cast their vote on the AC Milan platform and enter a draw for the chance to win a signed Rossoneri jersey. Over the first two weeks of voting, the initial list will gradually be reduced to eight finalists, from which the three new Fan-Elected Members will be selected. The winners will be honoured during AC Milan v Juventus, a match where Emirates will serve as Match Sponsor, and will receive the exclusive trophy crafted by Tiffany & Co., Official Trophy Maker of AC Milan.
"With this initiative we do not only want to celebrate our Club's past," said Franco Baresi, Honorary Vice President of AC Milan, "but also inspire future generations of AC Milan fans to write new chapters in our history. The list of candidates for the Class of 2026 includes players who represented Milan in different eras but who all share a very strong Rossoneri identity. It will be a source of great pride for me to welcome into the Hall of Fame the legends chosen by our fans."
In the coming years, the initiative will continue by celebrating the defenders and goalkeepers who helped make our Club great. For more information about the Hall of Fame presented by Emirates, visit acmilan.com.
