Milan Mayor Beppe Sala: “We’ll Move Forward With Authorization For Inter Milan & AC Milan’s New Stadium, But Remains To Be Seen What Happens With San Siro Injunction”
Milan Mayor Beppe Sala feels that the city of Milan is doing all it can to expedite the process of approving Inter and AC Milan’s new stadium plans, although the question of a possible injunction against demolishing the San Siro is out of their hands.
Speaking to the press, as reported by
Calcio e Finanza, the Milan Mayor explained that, as far as the possibility of an injunction that would prevent that two clubs from demolishing the existing San Siro, more time will be needed to see what happens.
Inter and Milan have been pushing to get started on their new stadium plans as soon as possible.
However, even as some progress has been made, there is still no clear end in sight to the bureaucratic hurdles as the clubs grow increasingly impatient, particularly the Rossoneri.
One more possible hitch would be the attempt that is being made to place an injunction on demolishing the San Siro which, if it were to be granted, would mean that approval from the city of Milan would essentially be meaningless and construction could not start within the city.
“We will continue to do what we have to do,” Sala said of the city’s role, “I met the new superintendent [Emmanuela Carpani] at a public event, who asked me for a few days as she settles into her new position, and then I’ll speak with her.”
“It remains to be seen how the superintendence will move on the question of an injunction against demolishing the San Siro, but for our part we will continue to move forward with the project of authorizing the plans,” the Mayor added.
