Gallery: ‘New stadium at high speed’, ‘Lopetegui approach’ – Today’s headlines in Italy

AC Milan will take on Napoli tomorrow evening and in addition to the big clash, today’s newspapers also focused on the new stadium developments. Indeed, things are looking up for the Rossoneri on many fronts. 

Tomorrow’s game is an important one for Stefano Pioli’s men, hoping to get revenge after losing a 2-0 lead in the reverse fixture. In front of the home crowd at San Siro, it should be a fantastic atmosphere and a win is more or less needed for confidence.

As said, today’s newspapers also focused a lot on the stadium developments. Milan have officially purchased the land in San Donato, now fully focused on that project and not the unrealistic San Siro renovation.
