Milan are working with American researchers on a computer project to improve their tactical awareness during matches.
The Rossoneri have sent two researchers to Boston to help develop the programme which tracks the exact movement of players during the course of a match.
Once completed, Carlo Ancelotti will be able to monitor the movement of his players in real time both during matches and training sessions and identify more easily which players have strayed from their allocated positions.
Steve McClaren successfully introduced similar technology during his time at Manchester United, after studying American methods adopted by NFL teams and placing cameras in various parts of the ground to better understand his side’s movement.
