Milan President talks about the new San Siro Stadium: Targets to be completed by 2030, with a down payment of 73 million euros

October 4th, AC Milan Chairman Scaroni elaborated on key topics such as the roadmap for building a new stadium, regeneration planning for the entire area, and expectations for club revenue.

Scaroni: "Our primary goal is to complete the final transfer of land ownership by October this year, when we will pay the first €73 million to the municipality of Milan. From that moment on, we can start the detailed design of the new stadium, which we have entrusted to Norman+Partners and Manica Architects, two outstanding representatives in the industry.

To see the complete project design, it will take about six to eight months, and then enter the evaluation stage of the joint meeting of the public service department, which will take another six months."

"The project will be in 2 Will the construction start in 027? Absolutely. Without considering some small delays that may occur in such large-scale projects, our goal is to complete the stadium construction in 2030. Will the first game be held in the 2030-2031 season? Ideally this is so that we have enough time to complete the necessary trial operations to ensure that the operational efficiency of the entire facility is at its best before the 2032 European Cup, and the new stadium will be one of the protagonists of that event. "

" The new stadium will have 148,000 square meters of green area, which means that more than 50% of the area in the entire area will be used for tree planting and construction Park. It will produce clean energy through photovoltaic panels on the roof. It will also provide reception services, bars, restaurants, and spaces for meetings and events: in this way, we can keep the area alive 365 days a year, 7 days a week, even on days without games. In addition, we will add 3,600 underground parking spaces. Overall, we expect the museum and the new stadium to attract 500,000 visitors a year, which will have a positive economic impact for the entire community. "

" I will give you three examples: Tottenham, Real Madrid and Arsenal, who have invested in the construction of the most advanced stadium in recent years. These three clubs are in the new The first season of home, the game-day revenues were more than doubled compared to the last season of the old home. Currently, this revenue figure for Milan and Inter is only a fraction of theirs. Therefore, in order to remain competitive at the competitive level, we need a modern facility. "

"We expect a significant increase in revenue. This is not because of the increase in ticket prices for ordinary fans and families, but because we will be able to sell more hospitality packages and high-end tickets to businesses. Not to mention revenues from other business events. We need a new stadium because it will create value for Milan and Inter and make the club more competitive on the international stage."
