Summary
For the 1907–08 season, the Italian Football Federation limited the registration to the championship only to teams made up entirely of Italian players. For this reason, Milan, which had a considerable number of foreigners in its squad, renounced registration to the championship as a sign of protest. The example was also followed by other renowned clubs.
The season was characterized by the conquest of the Palla Dapples, won on eight occasions, and the Coppa Lombardia, which, after the fourth consecutive victory, as per the regulation of the tournament, Milan definitively won. At the end of the season, Herbert Kilpin, main founder and first coach of the club, bid farewell to Milan. The final part of this season was also characterized by the first corporate crisis: 44 dissident members abandoned Milan and founded a new club, Inter.
