# 1953–54 AC Milan season

During the 1953–54 season Associazione Calcio Milan competed in Serie A.

## Summary

For the 1953-1954 season, among Milan's main signings were those of the Danish Jørgen Sørensen and the Italians Mario Bergamaschi and Alberto Piccinini. Burini and Annovazzi, on the other hand, left the club after nine seasons. The captain became Omero Tognon.
The Rossoneri, led by Arrigo Morselli first and, following his dismissal due to results below expectations, by Béla Guttmann finished the Serie A season in third place, on equal points with Fiorentina and behind Inter and Juventus. The change of coach did not benefit the team, which played a championship with mixed results. With 23 goals Nordahl is the league's top scorer for the fourth time in five seasons.
At the end of the season Umberto Trabattoni resigned as president after 14 years at the helm of the club (nine of which as president): he will be remembered as the president of the first scudetto in 44 years.
