In the past few days, Milan and Inter have sent their combined proposal to buy the stadium, after a few months of back and forth – something which has massively frustrated the council, causing Beppe Sala to speak on the matter regularly.
With a price seemingly agreed, there is a hope that things will be completed before the summer, which allows plans to be made rather swiftly. However, there seems to be another bump in the road, with Corriere di Milano (via Milan News) reporting that the sale is to be investigated.
The morning’s report states that the Prosecutor’s Office have ‘stepped in’ regarding the sale of the stadium to the two clubs, and whilst there are no suspects or ‘hypotheses of crime’ there is a feeling that the price may damage the public coffers.
Due to a complaint, led by Luigi Corbani, who was formerly the deputy mayor of Milano, there will be a full investigation into the matter, with some even seeing the price as ‘a gift’ to the Rossoneri and Nerazzurri, which some believe should not be the case.
