AC Milan ultras remain silent vs. Bologna and boycott away game at Juventus and

Milan ultras confirm they won’t support the team in their next home game against Bologna and will not travel to Turin for a match against Juventus on October for the fifth year in a row.

Milan ultras confirmed with an Instagram statement on Friday that they’d not travel to the Allianz Stadium in Turin for a game against Juventus next month and that they’ll continue their protest against the club in Sunday’s match against Bologna.

Milan ultras won’t end the protest

“No news regarding the shameful ticket sale system with mandatory registration on their [Juventus’] website; therefore, for the 5th year in a row, we will boycott the away trip to Turin,” the Milan ultras wrote in an Instagram story.

As for the next home game against Bologna on Sunday, “Unfortunately, the situation remains the same as in the first two matches at San Siro. If anything, it has gotten even worse. Therefore, with much regret and disappointment, there will be no change compared to the Milan-Bari and Milan-Cremonese.”

Why Milan ultras are protesting

It is worth noting that this ‘silent’ protest from Milan ultras is not motivated by the team’s poor results in the previous campaign, but is linked to the club’s decision to prevent some ultras members from buying tickets and season tickets in the ‘secondo anello blu’, which is the area dedicated to Milan ultras at San Siro.

The Milan management has also reportedly prohibited ultras from introducing some banners inside the stadium.

Over the last few months, Italian authorities launched investigations into Mafia links within Inter and Milan’s ultras groups.
