Just yesterday, Herbalife announced that it has become the official nutritional supplier of Inter-Milan, the football club that shares AC Milan's football stadium.

This new relationship will create a unique dynamic between Nutrilite and Herbalife within the Italian Serie A league; and within the broader realm of football globally.

As the number one supplement brand in the world, we are thrilled to be associated with AC Milan: "The most successful club" with one of the most esteemed training centers in the world. 

About AC Milan
Associazione Calcio Milan, commonly referred to as AC Milan and as simply Milan in Italy, is an Italian professional football club based in Milan, Lombardy. The club was founded in 1899 and has since spent most of its history in the top flight of Italian football.

Milan has won 18 officially recognized international titles, tied with Boca Juniors as having the most in the world. The club have won what is today known as the UEFA Champions League on seven occasions. As far as Italian competitions are concerned, Milan is the second most successful club with 17 league titles. AC Milan have won four world titles, more than any other club in the world. They have won the Intercontinental Cup three times, and the FIFA Club World Cup once.

Other important titles that Milan have won includes the European Super Cup (5), and the Cup Winners' Cup (2). In Italy, they have won the Coppa Italia five times, as well as five Italian Super Cups. AC Milan is also one of the G-14’s founding members, a group that represented eighteen of the largest and most prestigious European football clubs before its disbandment.

Officially, he will remain in Italy until the end of season, then return to California on July 1 to play in the Galaxy's remaining MLS games.
