The 1939-40 season was Associazione Sportiva Ambrosiana-Inter's 31st in existence and 24th consecutive season in the top flight of Italian football.

Summary The club clinched the title, the fifth in its history, and the third as Ambrosiana. In the Coppa Italia, Ambrosiana Inter lost to Torino. In the Mitropa Cup the squad was defeated by Újpest and its manager Bela Guttmann. An injury to the left foot of Meazza saw him resigned to the bench for almost the entire season. Still the Nerazzurri managed to top the table with Tony Cargnelli as manager, defeating Bologna in the final round of matches and lifted the title at the San Siro, the stadium of fierce rivals Milan, due to the stadium having a higher capacity Arena Civica.
