The second-string squad of glamour European club A C Milan will visit India in November to play two matches against yet-to-be-confirmed opposition.

"A C Milan's number two team would be visiting India as part of the 'Festa Italiana', an annual function of the Indo-Italian Chamber of Commerce and Industries," a source connected with organising the tour said.

The source said one of the matches is slated for Mumbai, while he is not sure about the venue of the other match.

"The details are being worked out, but the visit is scheduled towards the end of November."

It is excellent that Milan are heading to such developing football countries.The potential fan base is immense and also the potential for future players exists so i think there is more to it than helping a developing football nation..More clubs should help to develop football in such countries and not just exploit the commercial benefits.

even iam worried abt whr the game will be played. i guess they will either play at bombay gymkhana ground or they will convert brabourne stadium for the match.
