Every category and Serie A nominee at the Gran Gala del Calcio | OneFootball

The annual Gran Galà del Calcio is due to take place in Milan on Monday evening, when the Italian players’ association (AIC) will reveal the team of the season for the 2023-24 Serie A campaign, as well as the winners of a long list of categories including the coach and team of the year.
