  • Alessandro Abraham

    General committee

    Assumed role - 2025

    Alessandro has been an AC Milan supporter since the age of four, when his father took him to watch AC Milan training sessions at Linate. It was the era of players such as Gianni Rivera, and they made him fall in love with the club.

    He lived in Italy for 27 years before moving to Australia in 1995. He jokes that he cannot understand Juventus FC supporters. When he first met his wife, the first question he asked her was whether she followed football. When she said no, he replied, “From today, you’re becoming an AC Milan supporter — now we can go out.”
