Milan and Inter Take Another Step Toward New San Siro | OneFootball

Milan and Inter have followed up a recent meeting with all the authorities involved with a formal manifestation of interest to acquire the area where San Siro is located. The two sides worked on the document in recent days and sent it to the local administration, La Gazzetta dello Sport relays.

It’s just one of the several steps eventually required, but it was essential to keep things moving. The two outfits will now await the valuation of the income revenue authority. It is rumored that they will have to spend €200M to buy the current stadium.

Milan and Inter aren’t yet completely committed to the new San Siro project. They can still backtrack if they aren’t fully convinced in the end, especially by its overall costs. There’s not a firm blueprint at this stage either.

Considering an architectural limitation, the two clubs will be able to tear down the Giuseppe Meazza arena but a portion of the Curva Sud and the South-East sector. It would become a shop or something similar. That part could be revised if the stadium indeed becomes private, though.

The plan is in motion, but the timetable is up in the air and won’t be quick. San Siro will surely host the opening ceremony for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Any construction work will begin after that date.

Milan has recently been stripped of the 2027 Champions League final due to a lack of certainty about the faith of the arena. It’s more likely to be awarded to a different country rather than to Rome. The Rossoneri continue to further their fallback plan in Rozzano, on which they have spent €55M already.
