Having a debate with an Italian guy about who is the bigger club and I think it’s close.
Both have won their domestic league 19 times and Milan have 1 more Champions League.
Milan probably have more well known legends like Van Basten, Kaka, Maldini, Gullit and Pirlo. But in recent years Liverpool have had Gerrard, Suarez, Alonso, VVD and Salah.
The current popularity of the Premier League helps Liverpool but Milan also has a huge fanbase.
The big historic 7 European Supergiants are Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Manchester United, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus and AC Milan.
Real Madrid are probably top of that list but there’s arguments about the order of the other 6.
I would argue ajax and inter milan are among these supergiants as well
And both above Liverpool
Would we really call United a historic Euro Supergiant?
They’re probably second in that list behind Real to be honest.
Arsenal is bigger than Juve and Milan
Unfortunately there is no discussion Real Madrid is at the top.
Man Utd have win fewer European Cups than Ajax.
