During the 1906–07 season Milan Foot-Ball and Cricket Club competed in the Italian Football Championship, the FGNI Tournament and the Palla Dapples.

Summary

The Milan formation that won their third Italian Championship in the 1906–07 season.

In the 1906–07 season Milan won the third Italian Championship in their history, the second in a row. Added to this victory were the conquest of the Palla Dapples (seven times) and of the FGNI Tournament, two tournaments of comparable importance to that of the championship. This season, the squad showed a strong component of Swiss players: after the English athletes who were responsible for the conquest of the first scudetto in the history of Milan (1901), the large group of Swiss players was decisive for the club championship wins of 1906 and 1907. Among the others, Hans Walter Imhoff is to be remembered in this season as league top scorer for the club, with five goals. Milan won the title without defeats, a result that was extended to the other two aforementioned trophies.

Shortly before the start of the season, Herbert Kilpin, co-founder and first coach of Milan, left the role and was replaced by former player Daniele Angeloni, also a founding member of Milan. The Englishman remained in the squad and continued to be available as a player, resulting as one of the most decisive players of the season, scoring a total of seven goals (which might have been more due to the lack of sources for many goals).
