AC Milan and Inter have received approval from the local council to demolish the iconic San Siro and construct a new stadium, following the green light for a €197m sale.
At 3:45 a.m., the Milan City Council approved the sale of the San Siro and its surrounding areas to AC Milan and Inter, passing the decision 24-20 after a marathon session.
The council’s approval was necessary after mayor Beppe Sala agreed to sell the land to the two clubs for €197 million.
The plan aims to have the new stadium completed by 2031, in time for the European Championship the following year.
A statement from both clubs read: "AC Milan and FC Internazionale Milano express their satisfaction with the City Council's approval of the sale of San Siro and the surrounding area: a historic and decisive step for the future of the Clubs and the city.
“While awaiting the official announcement of the outcome of the council debate, the Clubs look with confidence and responsibility to the next steps in the process that will lead them to build a new stadium that meets the highest international standards: a world-class facility destined to become a new architectural icon for Milan and a symbol of the passion of football fans around the world."
