Last week, reports emerged claiming the pair are only formalities away from starting the new stadium project and are planning to have it done by 2024.

A new stadium shall be built from scratch and when the two teams move into the new ground, the second phase will consist of rebuilding San Siro and keep parts of the historic venue.

This was something the Mayor felt helped enthuse his view of the €1.2bn investment planned by Suning and Elliott.

“I like the new project,” Sala told Il Giornale. “Because it saves the old stadium, which will host other sports and mostly free of charge."
