AC Milan: fans invited to replace announcer for the announcement of the starting 11 versus Juventus

AC Milan (Serie A TIM) has launched a competition offering its fans the chance to replace the announcer for the match versus Juventus FC (Matchday 31) which will take place this Tuesday 07/07/2020 at the San Siro (kick-off at 21:45 CET), announced the club on 05/07/2020.

"AC Milan v Juventus, a match that we really would've loved to enjoy with a full house at San Siro (78,328 capacity), and to support and cheer on our Rossoneri and celebrate together. Though from far away, every fan now has the chance to be a bit closer to the team and to make their own voice heard," said the club.

Fans that wished to participate in the competition could take inspiration from a tutorial by Gegio, the club's regular announcer, then record an audio message announcing the composition of the Milanese team, before sending it to the club via WhatsApp on a dedicated phone number.
