The website is back up. If you miss the early bird discount, you're paying $660 for six hours of training. That's more than $100 per hour. My son has done private sessions with pros, including former national team players, and has never paid close to that per hour. Big time rip off.

They made some decent adjustments.... wish them luck!

Yes, they are a scam in the sense they are lending their name to something that has zero to do with their professional club. Same happens with Barca, PSG, etc. The uneducated consumer thinks they are getting something they are not. There is no fast track for little Timmy becoming a pro by dumping a bunch of cash on a pro team's jersey and tote bag. And, the people at AC Milan know that, but are more than willing to lend out their name for a quick buck from parents who have no clue what they are doing with their kids' soccer development...or lack thereof.

It might be fine for younger kids, maybe it will bring in some good training ideas and coaches. If it's convenient and you're not bothered by what I assume is going to be a crazy price point maybe you go to tryouts.
I don't see any halfway talented boy over U13 giving it a try. I'm guessing more expensive, bad practice space, lower league. If they are willing to make a long term commitment and they deliver what they promise, maybe they can grow, but if they expect kids banging down their door the first year or second or third year they'll be just another "Remember that club...what was that about.."

So what about the professional coaches of Barca, PSG, Real Madrid, and AC Milan? What about their methodology? Their history? Their values? Know-how? What about their success and experience in more than a century of experience?
You look only at the $$$ price of a Jersey and don't see what is behind it. It is your respectful opinion but I will sign up my two kids anyway! I do not pretend that they become "pros" but enjoy and seriously learn how to play soccer.

Relocating a dude from Vietnam to carry around an AC Milan "How To" guide is not going to create a secret sauce. Stop trying to oversell this. You're a new club with a staff of one trying to get established. That's what you are...you're not a pipeline to AC Milan or carry with you some football philosophical magic. Want to truly get better? Move to Italy.

Cmon man. You’re not making your program look any better by being on here.

Newbie question — I’m not as familiar with the teams in Italy. What’s the AC Milan style of play compared to other European clubs like PSG or Barca?
