Milan’s plan B, given the long delays for the San Siro area, is to build a stadium in the old Falck area in Sesto San Giovanni. The current mayor, Roberto Di Stefano, has welcomed the idea but a lot depends on his tenure.

As Gazzetta Dello Sport report, the mayor election is tomorrow and Di Stefano’s competitor, Michele Foggetta, has made it clear that a new stadium isn’t a priority for Sesto. In other words, it could change a lot for Milan.

Should Di Stefano win the election, then the stadium project will certainly be a possibility for Milan in case they decide to abandon the San Siro area. With Foggetta at the helm, though, it could be a lot more difficult as the backing of the council is needed for such a big project.
