Inter President Beppe Marotta reveals the Nerazzurri and their city rivals Milan want to build their new stadium ‘together.’
Marotta spoke about future stadium plans during an event on Friday evening, as reported by Calciomercato.com.
Recent meetings with Milan’s Municipality seem to have convinced Inter and Milan to remain at San Siro and make a plan to build a new stadium together in the same area as the Stadio Meazza.

“It’s a serious and delicate matter. Football is an aggregation phenomenon that only comes after religion,” said Marotta.
“Italian bureaucracy is the main issue that has led to the delay of any initiative. It has happened many times, even when I was in Venezia with Zamaprini in 1997. He bought a field, and it’s still there after 30 years.
“Milan and Inter want to build the stadium together, and the latest updates are directed towards the San Siro area, but these bureaucratic issues will remain.”
Milan has also bought an area in San Donato, on the outskirts of Milan, while Inter had identified Rozzano as the possible venue for their new stadium, but neither side has advanced projects to build club-owned stadiums.
