The stories of 1937

1930s-1940s

Giuseppe Santagostino, the Loyal Rossonero Forward

Giuseppe 'Peppino' Santagostino spent nearly his entire career in the rossonero shirt through the 1930s and into the war years, the industrious foil to Aldo Boffi's ferocity. A clever, hard-running forward, he finished among the highest scorers in Milan's history to that point. He was a one-club man in an age that rarely rewarded such devotion with silverware.

1936-37: Boffi arrives

A transitional season as Bologna retained the scudetto, remembered chiefly for the arrival from Seregno of young centre-forward Aldo Boffi, who would become Milan's great goalscorer of the war years. The pioneering English coach William Garbutt is recorded as having a brief spell in charge at Milan in 1937 before returning to Genoa, the club with which his name is most closely linked.
