Milan was then involved in matches against several European top level cubs, including Lyon, Internazionale and Real Madrid in the International Champions Cup, and Bayern Munich and Tottenham Hotspur in the 2015 Audi Cup.
On 12 August, Milan won the 2015 TIM trophy after again defeating Inter and Sassuolo (the later after penalties) after two matches of 45 minutes each.

Coppa Italia
The 2015–16 Coppa Italia began in August with Milan entering the competition in the third round. Their first match was against Serie B side Perugia and was played on 17 August 2015, following a request by Milan to delay the match by two days due to other pre-season obligations. Milan opened the score early through Keisuke Honda and then within 20 minutes, scored again through Luiz Adriano, who scored his first official goal for the club.
Milan then advanced into the fourth round where Crotone was defeated after extra time. Luiz Adriano during regular time, and Giacomo Bonaventura and M'Baye Niang during extra time were the scorers. Further in December, Milan also ruled out Sampdoria in an emotions limited match, thanks to Niang and Carlos Bacca goals, earning the right to face Carpi in the quarter-finals.
Milan played its first Coppa Italia match in 2016 against Carpi on 13 January. The Rossoneri progressed to the semi-finals by beating Reggio Emilia side with 2−1 at a moderately attended San Siro. Bacca gave Milan the lead after 14 minutes of play with a fine rabona, then Niang found himself on the scoresheet just before the half-hour mark. Milan will face Alessandria in a two-legged semi-final encounter.
In a rather tedious match, Milan came out victorious against Alessandria in the first leg of the Coppa's semi-finals. Mario Balotelli converted a penalty kick into a game-winning goal just before half-time. In the second leg, played at San Siro, Milan easily outplayed Alessandria and won the semi-finals 6–0 on aggregate. Jérémy Ménez scored a doppietta, while Alessio Romagnoli and Balotelli scored one goal each. Alessandria's Roberto Sabato also scored an own goal.
Milan then traveled to Rome to meet Juventus in the final on 21 May at Stadio Olimpico. The Rossoneri were defeated by Álvaro Morata's goal during the second period of extra time, despite being arguably the better opponent in the final, controlling the ball possession and the pace of the match and creating more scoring chances.
