Milan and Inter Name Foster + Partners and Manica for New Stadium Design as City Vote Looms
Work would start only if the city approves the San Siro sale this month.
Overview
- The clubs signed conditional agreements with Foster + Partners and Manica to design a 71,500-seat venue within a 281,000-square-meter regeneration plan.
- City councilors will review the proposal on Sept. 25 and are slated to vote on Sept. 29 following preliminary approval and a €197 million valuation of the site.
- The project envisions demolishing at least 90% of the existing Stadio Giuseppe Meazza and replacing it with a co-owned, modern facility.
- Inter president Beppe Marotta warned the teams could leave Milan if the deal is blocked, while Mayor Giuseppe Sala said the council will decide autonomously and that departure is possible.
- The clubs target readiness for Euro 2032 planning and San Siro is set to host the Milan-Cortina Olympics opening ceremony, with UEFA signaling concerns if the venue remains unchanged.
