Inter and Milan ‘seeking solution’ for new stadium

Mayor of Milan Giuseppe Sala insists they are ‘seeking a solution to make everyone’s interests compatible’ after meeting with Inter and Milan for the new stadium plans.

According to agency Dire, the latest encounter saw the local authorities ask the two clubs to further reduce the office space and buildings not directly related to the stadium that are in the project.

It is similar to the issues that Roma had with the local council when trying to present plans for their stadium, which remains caught up in red tape.

Inter CEO Alessandro Antonello, Milan President Paolo Scaroni and Elliott representative Giorgio Furlani were at the meeting today at the Palazzo Marino building.

“There is the mutual desire to progress together, we need to make everyone’s interests compatible and we are seeking a solution,” Mayor Sala told reporters.

“I consider today’s meeting to be a step forward, we will discuss it again later this week. It is our interest to progress, I understand the clubs and they explained that to compete in Europe they need new stadiums. Both we and the clubs must take a step towards each other.”
