The Serie A club Inter Milan has acquired the exclusive rights for a feasibility study to build a new stadium in Rozzano, a suburb of Milan (Italy), two real estate firms said in a statement recently.
‘Reuters’ stated that Inter will own the rights until April 30th, 2024, said the Italian real estate group Brioschi (BRUI.MI) and holding Bastogi (BTGI.MI), which together own the land through their participation in a company called Infrafin.
The Inter Milan is an Italian professional football club based in Milan, Lombardy (Italy). Inter is the only Italian side to have always competed in the top flight of Italian football (Serie A) since its debut in 1909.
The Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, commonly known as San Siro, is a football stadium in the San Siro district of Milan, Italy, which is the home of A.C. Milan and Inter Milan. It has a seating capacity of 80,018, making it one of the largest stadiums in Europe, and the largest in Italy.
‘Reuters’ further stated that at present Inter and its City rivals A.C. Milan both play their home games at Milan’s famous San Siro Stadium built in 1926 and repeatedly renovated.
However, in recent years, both teams have been looking at alternatives.
The A.C. Milan or simply Milan is a professional football club in Milan, Italy, founded in 1899. The club has spent its entire history, with the exception of the 1980-1981 and 1982-1983 seasons, in the top flight of Italian football known as Serie A since 1929-1930. The club plays its home games at the San Siro Stadium.
After the Inter-Milan ‘The Cathedral’ dreams came-a-dashing after an injunction was put up against demolishing the San Siro both the clubs have thrown enough hints earlier that they want to build their own stadium in two different areas.
‘The Cathedral’ was being planned as a celebration of the artistic and cultural heritage of Milan (Italy). Its design was inspired by two of the most famous buildings in the City – the Duomo di Milano and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele – and would have resulted in a unique stadium that would have stood out from any other sporting arena in the world and would have served as the home venue of Italy’s top-rung clubs – A.C. Milan and Inter Milan.
But, with the above development, it is becoming apparent that the top-flights want to go their separate ways when it comes to building a new home venue.
