AC Milan owner Gerry Cardinale on new stadium: I'm a big believer in being independent

AC Milan owner Gerry Cardinale admits he'd prefer their own new stadium.

Milan and Inter Milan are set to leave San Siro for a new ground.

But Cardinale says: "San Siro was built in 1926 and renovated over the years. I want to say that we want Milan and Serie A to return to the top levels, where I believe they deserve to be, we need to make a 360 degree analysis.

“And to return to the top you need the infrastructure. I want to give our fans a top product. We'll see if we can find the right opportunity. But it has to work for the fans, for the Milan City Council and the Lombardy Region, for Serie A, as well as for us.

“We have the experiences with the Yankees Stadium, the Dallas Cowboys Stadium. We have experience in building stadiums and differentiating the various revenues from this type of infrastructure.

“I'm a big believer in being independent, but right now there's nothing we're ruling out regardless. But you know, I think Inter are currently thinking about what their future will be and we are focusing on ours and what can be the best solution for us."
