AC Milan Confirm Interest In Building New Stadium With Inter Milan In Hippodrome Of San Siro Area, Italian Media Report | OneFootball

Confirmation has arrived from AC Milan that they would consider the Hippodrome of San Siro area to be a legitimate option for the new stadium to be built with Inter.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews, who report that the Rossoneri have confirmed that they are assessing the possibility of building in the Hippodrome area so that the stadium can be constructed in Milan without tearing down the San Siro.

Reports yesterday suggested that the Hippodrome area is being studied by Inter and Milan as a possible alternative location to where the Giuseppe Meazza currently stands for a new stadium.

Given that the opposition to demolishing the Meazza has been one of the biggest obstacles to getting approval on starting construction, the possibility of a location adjacent to the stadium would be attractive insofar as it could allow the Meazza to remain standing and the clubs to still stay within the city.

According to the Corriere della Sera, Milan have confirmed that they consider the possibility on the table, and are assessing whether it would be viable.
