City Of Milan Give Inter Milan & AC Milan Ultimatum On San Siro Purchase | OneFootball

The city of Milan have given Inter Milan and AC Milan an ultimatum on purchasing the land to build a new San Siro.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Corriere della Sera, via FCInter1908.

Inter and Milan are working diligently on plans to build a new stadium.

The clubs cannot demolish the San Siro and build a new stadium in its place. However, nothing is stopping them from building a new stadium adjacent to the existing one to replace it.

That is what the clubs are prioritizing, rather than the prior idea of building separately and outside the city of Milan.

However, there is still a lot of work for Inter and Milan to do.

City Give Inter & AC Milan Ultimatum On Purchasing Land For San Siro

The next step is for Inter and Milan to deliver a plan to the city of Milan.

The two clubs must have a convincing plan to purchase the land on which to build, and get approval on the construction plans themselves.

That will be no mean feat.

Therefore, the clubs must deliver the plans soon. It will not be an instant process to secure approval.

The city feel that the Nerazzurri and the Rossoneri are dragging their heels somewhat.

This is particularly the case given that AC Milan still own land in San Donato. Therefore, the city suspect that there could be a certain ulterior motive, if they have yet to commit to the San Siro option.

The process of securing final approval and actually buying the land will be a complicated one. And there will still be bureaucratic hurdles for Inter and Milan to navigate.

Therefore, the city have given the clubs an ultimatum that they must submit their plans.
