New Stadium

[Puma]

Does anyone else feel that we are inching a step closer?

 

[nurko]

Everyone is, just hoping it's not wishful thinking and it's actual progress.

 

[William]

As I said to my father in law, I’ll be in my 40s at best before this stadium is built and I just turned 30, something will surely screw us over.

Does anyone else feel that we are inching a step closer?

Yes. We've moved one meter closer and it's only 1000 kilometers left.

 

[Cris]

Can't believe this actually looks to be happening! What a wild ride 2020 has been!

Milan Mayor Sala On New Stadium: “Inter & AC Milan Know What They’re Asking Is Impossible”

Milan city mayor Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Sala has admitted that there is still some distance between Inter and AC Milan’s demands and what the Milan city council can grant them in terms of volume of additional buildings as part of the new stadium project.

As part of their stadium project, the two clubs wish to build several additional buildings to give life to the area when football is not being played.

The clubs would like hotels, shops and restaurants among other things to be built but the amount they want exceeded what the Milan city council can give to them.

“The teams know about the maximum volumes that the City can grant them. The clubs know that what they have asked for so far is impossible for us to accept. This remains a fundamental knot,” Sala remarked in an interview with Italian daily newspaper Il Giorno, which appeared on their online edition.

In recent weeks the two clubs published further renderings of the projects put forward to them by the Populous group and Manica/CMR Sportium project and it remains to be seen which of the projects the two clubs will decide to go on with.

I will believe we'll have a new stadium when I see the stadium standing built.

If bureaucracy and third world country business mentality had a child, it would be called Italy.

If I were our management, I would have already moved to plan B, Sesto San Giovanni.

It's going to be a very long tug of war with milano's municipality, and who knows when it finally comes to en end.

Completely agree, both clubs have tried hard for this and there’s always some blocker so yup I’d pack it up and secure the plan b site while the san siro district has an aging stadium it will have to deal with itself.

So much this. Zhang and Scaroni have zero political influence in Milano unlike Agnelli in Torino where he has tons of it.

 

[Nero Indigo]

They’re just wasting their time with these punks. They should give San Sesto serious consideration, I’m pretty sure Zhang will run out of patience soon enough.

Apparently a significant progress has been made with the city of Milano over the stadium project. Some kind of agreement has been made regarding the needed space (building volume or something) for the renovation of Meazza.

Renovation of Meazza will cost approx 74m€.

That is until there isn’t any progress and complications again...

I’m pretty sure I’ll read that in under 2 weeks time.

 

[firmino]

Well, phase one is closed, seeing as they finally agreed on the surface area of the project and what to do with San Siro.

Now it's time for phase two, actually planning when to start working on the designated areas.

 

[Puma]

Does anyone know what the proposed capacity of the new stadium is going to be? I hope it is not a piece of shit 45,000 capacity stadium.

 

[CafeCordoba]

It's probably going to be 55k-60k max.

[emosjonellspiller]

At the presentation of the stadiums in October, they said it will be 60-65k on both proposals.

 

[vex]

Did they choose the design yet?

I hope it won't be that generic toilet bowl shit.
