During the 1948–49 season AC Milan competed in Serie A.
Summary After years of no foreign players, several transfers in for rossonero arrived during summer such as: midfielder Albert Guðmundsson from AS Nancy Lorraine and Northern Irish Forward Paddy Sloan from Sheffield United. Sloan pioneered the way for the likes of Liam Brady and Robbie Keane by becoming the first Irishman to play in Serie A. After a failed bid on Danish Johannes Pløger, who was signed by Juventus at the very start of the second half of the season, Trabattoni received in compensation by the same bianconero club the rights for the transfer of Swedish Forward Gunnar Nordahl, recently the winner of a gold medal at the 1948 Summer Olympic Games in London, a future legend for the rossonero club.
Meanwhile, in the league, the squad finished the race on a decent 3rd spot.
