In the 2013–14 season, Associazione Calcio Milan competed in Serie A for the 80th time, as well as the Coppa Italia and the UEFA Champions League. It was there 31st consecutive season in the top flight of Italian football.
By early 2014, it was clear that this was an exceptionally bad season for Milan, prompting Milan to change its manager in mid-January.
In January, they were eliminated from the Coppa Italia in the quarter finals (Milan's second match of the Coppa) by Udinese, who at the time were sitting in the bottom half of the Serie A table.
On 9 February 2014, Milan were in 11th place in the Serie A, just about in the bottom half of the table of 20 teams.
In the Champions League, Milan secured a place in Group Stage of after beating PSV in the play-off round 4–1 on aggregate. On 11 December 2013, Milan qualified for the next stage in the competition after playing to a 0–0 draw against Ajax, securing second place in group behind group leaders Barcelona. The Rossoneri were then matched against Atlético Madrid, who defeated Milan 0–1 at San Siro and 4–1 in Madrid. After the defeat, Milan continued their run of failing to eliminate a Spanish club in the knockout phase since the competition's refurbishment in 1992.

1Since the 2013–14 Coppa Italia champions Napoli and runners–up Fiorentina qualified for the 2014–15 European football season thus 4th, 5th and 6th in Serie A (barring any failure to receive a "UEFA licence" from the FIGC or a ban from European competition) would qualify for group stage, play-off round and third qualifying round respectively.
2The FIGC rejected the application of Parma for a UEFA license, because Parma had overdue tax debt; their place goes to seventh-place Torino, which has a UEFA license.

Transfers (Summer window)
In the summer transfer window, Milan sought to continue their campaign of signing younger players. Riccardo Saponara came to the club, returning from his six-month loan to Empoli. Jherson Vergara also arrived, having signed on before the transfer market, just after fellow Colombian defender Cristián Zapata was bought by Milan after a successful loan spell. Another import transfer was midfielder Andrea Poli, purchased from Sampdoria.The main hits come in the final part of summer market, acquiring Alessandro Matri and welcoming back Brazilian star Kaká. Milan parted ways with club legend Massimo Ambrosini, who was released on 30 June 2013 after he was not offered a contract extension. Other departures included Bojan (who returned to his main club Barcelona), Mathieu Flamini (who did not agree to a contract extension), Luca Antonini and, arguably most importantly, Kevin-Prince Boateng, who left just the day after scoring two goals in the 2013–14 UEFA Champions League play-off against PSV, assuring the team's progression to the tournament's group stage.
