Summary

[edit]

After years of no-foreign players, several transfers in for rossonero arrived during summer such as: midfielder Albert Guðmundsson from AS Nancy Lorraine[1] and Northern Irish Forward Paddy Sloan from Sheffield United.[2] Sloan pioneered the way for the likes of Liam Brady and Robbie Keane by becoming the first Irishman to play in Serie A.[3] After a failed bid on Danish Johannes Pløger- who was signed by Juventus at the very start of the second half of the season-[4] Trabattoni received in compensation by the same bianconero club the rights for the transfer of Swedish Forward Gunnar Nordahl,[5] recently winner of a gold medal at the 1948 Summer Olympic Games in London, a future legend for the rossonero club.

Meanwhile, in League the squad finished the race on a decent 3rd spot.
