During the 1982–83 season Milan Associazione Calcio competed in Serie B and Coppa Italia.
Summary
In 1982–83, Milan faced their second season in Serie B. The new coach was Ilario Castagner. The squad was revolutionized: five pillars of the Stella title left: Walter Novellino (moving to Ascoli), Aldo Maldera (to Roma), Roberto Antonelli (Genoa), Ruben Buriani (Cesena), as well as Fulvio Collovati, sold by his will to Inter, obtaining in exchange the loans of Giancarlo Pasinato, Nazzareno Canuti and Aldo Serena. Other signings were Vinicio Verza (from Cesena), Oscar Damiani (from Napoli) and Tiziano Manfrin (from Genoa), as well as goalkeeper Giulio Nuciari and Maurizio D'Este. Milan path to the promotion was relatively comfortable, losing only three matches and spending the entire season in the top two spots of the table, in an interesting duel against Lazio, which in the end was left eight points behind.
Milan game proved decidedly more pleasant than in the previous two seasons. Coach Castagner played an attacking football, remarked by the thirteen different players who scored at least one goal. Franco Baresi, only 22 years old, obtained the captaincy of the club, which he will retain until his retirement 15 years later. Also in the Coppa Italia Milan gave good impressions, reaching the quarter-finals where they were eliminated on away goals by Verona.
