“The new stadium will probably be built, but San Siro must be demolished or the teams will go elsewhere”

Giuseppe Sala, mayor of Milan, speaking with the students hosted by the Collegio delle Università di Milano Foundation, spoke about the issue of the new Milan and Inter stadium as follows: “There is a path to follow, in all likelihood the new stadium will be built . We are proceeding with the public debate which will end on November 18. In the end the Municipality must accept or reject the observations. To re-enter the investment, the teams have to do commercial, offices, which is there, but in compliance with the rules. San Siro? If I had to keep the Meazza it is clear that they would go somewhere else, in this sense it becomes necessary to demolish San Siro. With the new stadium I believe we will proceed. One of the constraints of the PGT (the Territorial Government Plan) is not only how much you can building but also how much green to leave. If I had to keep San Siro it is clear that the new buildings would take another part and take away some greenery. The area where there is San Siro for the clubs is seen in fact as a part of their development, so in this sense it becomes necessary to tear down San Siro. The process is in the final stages with the public debate and after this the junta will have to express itself but I see a positivity in this path. The teams will begin to make the executive project that will go to the hall of the City Council. It will take years for this, so much so that the inauguration of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympic Games will be held at San Siro “reports repubblica.it.
