Interri and Milan present projects for the new stadium

Both clubs have joined to build a new stadium, which will immediately be near the current stadium, so technically in the San Siro area. Milan's chairman gave them the opportunity to buy the stadium so they could rebuild it, but a study showed the cost of the operation along with the amount of time they would have to play elsewhere during the work, just made it fruitless.

A joint press conference was held this morning to uncover proposals for a new stadium, representing a new world-class perfection point for San Zion and the city of Milan.

Inter Director General Alessandro Antonelli and Milan's President Paolo Scaroni brought up ideas about people gathered at the press conference.

“The Meazza Stadium, as it stands, is no longer suitable for two large clubs with ambition and a key role on the European scene. This is just one fact, and compared with stadiums across Europe, they are a different matter”, Scari originally said.

We love Meazan, but she's been walking through it. The opportunity to help transform this area of the city as well should be welcome, because besides the days of the match, it is an empty concrete space with nothing in it”.

The “Investing would be worth 1.2 billion and would provide a modern stadium that expects about 60 thousand fans, but also an area that will be used by citizens for 365 days a year and green-areas”.

Our project will be much greener than around the current San Siros, more ecological, more stable and finally less visual and acoustic influence in the city. The current stadium is 68m long, the projects we're looking at will be mostly 30m”.

“The new stadium will have a 60 - percent smaller acoustic impact in the city, as it will close in comparison with the open structure we now have”, it concluded.

Inter chief Antonelli also commented that the city of Milan represents fashion and thus an interesting project is needed for new generations.

“We've wanted a project that can be adjusted to the revival plans of Milan 2030 city, but also a stadium that can adapt to future generations, which is for the citizens of Milan and not only for football fans”, Antonello has originally said.

Our “Analysis indicated that if we wanted to rebuild the stadium, we would have to destroy the first level, work in the third, towers and lower the” roof.

There would be a radical restructuring and we realized that, or in the same way, San Siro that we see today would lose his identity that he has today”

“If we were to intervene in the current San Siro Stadium, it would require our fans to emigrate 100,200km away with a certainly inferior capacity to Meazzas, such as Verona's Bentegodi, Turin's Olympianco and the DayAra of Bilogna”.

“Since 2002, there has been only a new stadium in Italy, compared to 24 throughout Europe”.

“We wanted architects to express something related to Milan's tradition and town, in other words a stadium capable of attracting tourists and fans from around the world, who can only witness this arena in Milan”.

The design division of fans and citizens begins today, because we want to make this journey together, gather all thought and study”

“Two final projects are Popul and Manica”, Inter chairman concluded. /Telegraphy/
