The 1995–96 season was Milan AC's 96th season in existence and the club's 13th consecutive season in the top flight of Italian football. Also the club played in Coppa Italia and UEFA Cup.

Summary

AC Milan got back to the level at which it had performed in consecutive seasons between 1992 and 1994, resulting in the domestic league title. It had reacted to its unexpected fall from grace in the 1994-95 season by signing George Weah and Roberto Baggio for the attack. Despite Baggio not performing at his customary Juventus level, a tight defence landed the title for the Milanese club.

Following the end of the season, Fabio Capello left the club to join Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid as a new manager.
