🏟️ Green light for the new San Siro, work starts in late 2027 🇮🇹 | OneFootball

The Milan City Council has officially unlocked the complex bureaucratic process for the construction of the new San Siro stadium.

After years of intense debates, technical plans, and social protests, the municipal administration has given the final green light to move forward with the modernization of one of world football’s great temples.

According to the official statement issued by the local authorities, the Strategic Environmental Assessment (VAS) procedure has begun. This administrative step is essential to validate the implementation plan known as "GFU San Siro," which will mark the beginning of a new urban development era in the Italian city.

The official timeline states that construction work will begin in the second half of 2027. This ambitious project not only includes the new venue, but also the partial demolition of the current structure. The aim is to balance architectural innovation with the preservation of the stadium’s historic legacy.

The resolution published by the Milan city administration aims to speed up the procedures that had so far kept the project at a standstill. With this decision, Inter and AC Milan now see themselves closer to having a state-of-the-art home that meets UEFA standards.
