Inter and Milan agree to demolish Stadio Meazza

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Stadio Meazza will be entirely demolished as part of the project for Inter and Milan‘s new stadium which should be ready for 2027-28.

Inter and Milan have agreed to entirely demolish their historical home, as La Gazzetta dello Sport reports.

The two Milanese sides approved the project called ‘The Cathedral’ at the end of 2021, which must now go through a public debate. There will be ten meetings over the next month when the two clubs will explain their plans for the stadium and the requalification of the San Siro area.

The Cathedral should be built meters away from the Stadio Meazza and the initial project only planned a partial demolition of the current stadium.

However, in order to decrease cement content in the area and present a more sustainable and ‘greener’ project, the two clubs have agreed to demolish San Siro from 2027-2028 when the new stadium is ready.

The building of a new stadium in the area of San Siro remains the clubs’ priority, although Sesto San Giovanni is still an option for Milan and Inter who could move just outside Milan in case the Cathedral project is not approved after the public debate or if it will take too long to begin works.
