MILAN – One of the club’s first great players, Renzo De Vecchi, was born on this day in 1894.

An Italy international, he would go on to win 3 titles during his time with Genoa. He passed away at the age of 73 and the club pays tribute to him on this day.

MILAN – Palermo are the team with the most yellow cards in Serie A 2015/16, they have picked up 62 yellows in the 22 matches played so far.
From the start of 2016 Palermo have scored 7 goals in 5 league matches but the last 6 goals have been scored by six different players; Vazquez in Verona, Quaison, Hiljemark, Lazaar and Trajkovski against Udinese, Gilardino at home against Carpi.

After the home defeat against Napoli in the league, 0-4 last October, Milan have moved up a gear and have picked up 27 points in the last 15 games. Had the league started on round 8 then the rossoneri would currently be third behind the unstoppable Juventus (40 points) and Napoli (38 points).
