From July 31 through August 3, Milan are going to Moscow to play in a 4-way friendly - the Moscow Railway Tournament - with Lokomotiv Moscow, Chelsea and Sevilla.
Edited to show this year's teams, not last year's. Thanks, Misha!

Here are the call ups for the tournament:
MILANO - Questi i 21 rossoneri convocati dal tecnico Carlo Ancelotti per la trasferta di Mosca: Dida 1, Kalac 16, Abbiati 12 Antonini 77, Bonera 25, Digao 31, Favalli 19, Jankulovski 18, Kaladze 4, Maldini 3, Oddo 2, Simic 17, Zambrotta 15 Ambrosini 23, Brocchi 32, Flamini 84, Gattuso 8, Pirlo 21 Kakà 22, Paloschi 43, Seedorf 10
Today's training has taken place.
The team worked on muscle strengthening exercises in warmup. Maldini, Emerson, and Dida trained with the group.
Some of the team (Simic, Maldini, favalli, Bonera, Jankulovski, Brocchi, Digao, Aubameyang, Antonini, Paloschi, Pirlo, Gattuso, Ambrosini, Zambrotta and Emerson) then worked on agility drills alternating with an obstacle course of sorts (this is my best translation, it still sounds funny).
Following this, Gattuso, Zambrotta and Simic worked with Mauro Tassotti: running the perimeter of the pitch and then working on sprints and stretching.
Jankulovski, Favalli, Bonera, Digao, Aubemeyang and Antonini did work on rhythm alternating with a series of sprints, under the watchful eyes of Filippo Galli.
Seedorf, Inzaghi, Kaladze and Flamini trained in the gym.
Dida took part in training and also worked on rapidity and elasticity (? that's how it translates) drills.
Tomorrow the team will have morning training and will then head to Moscow.

The tournament has a website! http://railwayscup.com/index.htmlThat's the English version, with some info/background on the tournament. The Russian version has a lot more detail and will be running text commentary of the matches (in Russian).
