During the 1959–60 season Associazione Calcio Milan competed in Serie A, Coppa Italia and European Cup.
Summary
In the 1959-1960 season the Rossoneri, still led by Luigi Bonizzoni as coach, exchanged goalkeepers with Genoa: Lorenzo Buffon was in fact sold to the Ligurian club in exchange for Giorgio Ghezzi. Milan ended the championship in third place, with 44 points, nine behind Serie A champions Juventus and ahead of second-placed Fiorentina. Among the positive results of the season was the 5–3 win against Inter, where José Altafini became the first and only player to have scored four goals in a Milan derby.[4]
In the Coppa Italia, Milan were eliminated in the second round by Como thanks to a 0–1 defeat at home.
The campaign in the European Cup was also short: following the victory in the first round against Olympiakos (2–2 in Greece and 3–1 at San Siro), Milan were beaten 7–1 on aggregate by Barcelona in the round of 16.
At the end of the season, Juan Alberto Schiaffino left the club after six years with the Rossoneri.
