THE PROJECT
The Rossoneri club has been in Gerry Cardinale’s hands for 500 days and the priority is the new facility: oval rectangle and vertical stands, this is how it will be

RedBird officially announced the purchase of Milan on May 31, 2022 and today, after 500 days of data revolution and moneyball, the great priority of Gerry Cardinale is the construction of new stadium. A system that unlike San Siro can also be used 365 days a year for other events, a key step for the future of a club whose distinctive feature has become the link between sport, media and entertainment. The area affected is that of the former San Francesco area San Donato and the club has already set the deadlines: 2025 start of work, 2028 or 2029 the first match.
The idea of the Rossoneri owners is to build a stadium for approximately
70 thousand seats of which the first renderings and visual projects have already been made by the Manica studio and waiting to untie the knots regarding the
traffic (Milan’s plan would be to have new motorway junctions, an upgraded railway and an extension of the yellow metro available) and the
public utility of the project,
La Gazzetta dello Sport provided some previews of what the new Rossoneri facility should look like.
The shape should be that of an oval rectangle, with long square sides and rounded curves and the rings will be two and no longer three. Furthermore, the stands will be as vertical as possible, close to 38 degrees of inclination
Yellow Wall of the Signal Iduna Park in Dortmund. All sectors will then have places for the disabled (this is not the case at San Siro, ed.) and in the corridors inside there will be
shops and restaurants. The roof will not cover the pitch and the pitch will not be retractable. In the stadium area, in addition to the museum, hotel and new headquarters, an arena for concerts and theater shows with approximately 3000 seats could also be built.
And the name? For issues related to financial reasons, Milan’s intention would be to rely on a sponsor who can acquire the ‘naming rights’ of the future facility and therefore also collaborate on the construction in terms of expenditure. Second

Fly Emirates (which has already given its name to the Arsenal stadium) discussions on this expansion of the partnership are already underway.
SCARONI: “WE WANT TO MAKE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL STADIUM IN THE WORLD”
The president of Milan also spoke about the new stadium
Paolo Scaroni: “We want to make the most beautiful stadium in the world, an eco-friendly facility for 70 thousand people, bringing value to an isolated and lost area.” The solution
San Donato took off: “We like this solution – he commented to Sky – even if San Siro would have been less expensive, but with the new stadium we will have that sense of identity that we need. In our plans the first match will be at the beginning of the 2028/29 season”.
Not just a stadium in the project: “We will need bridges connecting with the rest of the city and a commercial activity, not a shopping centre, with restaurants and entertainment activities. It will be a place that will live all year round with large green spaces.”
Finally, the regret for the abandonment a
San Siro: “I have always tried to convince mayor Sala that we should make San Siro the most beautiful stadium in the world, because Milan deserves it. The issue of the restriction provided the final blow in a story that dragged on for years.”
