Il Giorno: Lombardy Region ready to join Program Agreement for Milan’s stadium project

By Isak Möller -

AC Milan are making progress on the stadium front as the Lombardy region is expected to join the Program Agreement next week. Although a lot of work remains, as a report highlights, the fact the Rossoneri are moving forward is very positive. 

The San Donato recently invited the affected authorities to join the Program Agreement for Milan’s stadium project in the San Francesco area. As reported by Il Giorno (via MilanNews), the Lombardy Region has taken note of the invitation and is preparing to join the agreement next week.

Along with the San Donato council, as well as other authorities such as the police, the project will be discussed in great detail and above all, a feasible plan will be worked out. One key issue is how to properly involve the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano, while the infrastructure relating to transportation to and from the stadium is another one.

The new stadium is expected to have 70k seats and the total investment, including the surrounding areas, will amount to €1.28bn for Milan and Gerry Cardinale. In short, it is very important to get things right as a lot of money has been invested already, with the Rossoneri paying around €40m so far.

  1. This is fantastic news!
    See guys not everything is bashing management, it’s critiquing. They do get some things right 😁

    1. It’s no use mate, when the news is entirely positive there will be less comments. Because many “fans” here just looking for news that will satisfy their negative agenda 😄

      These kind of news won’t even register in their mind for 10 minutes 😂

      1. Redbird: We’re building a stadium / Fans: No you’re not!
        Redbird: We want to be competitive / Fans: No you don’t!
        Redbird: We’re going to make 4-5 big signings / Fans: Fk off cheap b@stards!
        Other fans: Calm down, you’re being hysterical / Fans: NO WE’RE NOT! SHUT UP YOU STUPID CARDINALE BOT GERRY @SS SNIFFER!

          1. Ibra said he’d “stay” (ie, he won’t be sold this summer), but he was then very sketchy about any forthcoming renewal.

            Theo simply rebuffed the attempts of a journalist to turn a press conference about a France match into a transfer sage. What was he supposed to say “Yes, Im signing a contract next week”, or “My agent is in Madrid ironing out the details as we speak”. He didn’t contradict anything, he just refused to get drawn, same as any media trained footballer would.

            Media storm in a teacup.

          2. Zlatan said: “Theo and Maignan will stay, Leao too. They are among the strongest players in their roles and have a contract with us, they are happy.”

            Théo said: « Je suis 100% concentré sur l’Euro. Si je vais rester à Milan ou partir ? On verra après. » (I am 100% focused on the Euro. If I’ll stay at Milan or leave? We’ll see later)

            Deschamps also said that Théo lost his enthusiasm after the Scudetto season.

            Anyway this management is like the pied piper of Hamelin, they play the flute and rats and children follow (not referring to you here but some negationist fans).

          3. I agree with your last comment although the same can be said on the “other side” – there are plenty of anti-Redbird drum-bangers who haven’t looked up to see what they are banging a drum at yet. Society at large is the same so no surprise.

            It’s one of those where the reasoned anti-Redbirders (you and some others), and those still giving them the benefits of the doubt (like me) would find plenty of common ground over a beer, but this is the internet so we get lumped into binary categories – you despise them, I love them, and that’s that 😀

            Couldn’t have said it better 😅.
            Cheers 🍻haha

      2. @AR, Ok this escalated quickly lol 😂. I’ve always liked the commercial approach by the current owners. Back in the Kaka days we could have made so much more from that aspect. Compared to say, Galliani who missed so many opportunities. But these guys seem to have the knowledge for that aspect of the club. So credit goes there. And that they’re serious about the stadium is good news for the long term health if the club
        Ofc I don’t agree with how they’ve managed transfers and other aspects incl comms and direction but I don’t want to jump the gun just yet as they’ve really only had one proper transfer window. This summer is a wait and see. It will tell us how they operate and how they believe in their own work. Time will tell

  2. This is the only thing I like about American leadership,Hopefully the stadium they are planning will be realized quickly.

  3. just sell the club.
    even if they build the new stadium, the owner will not chase any glory for Milan.
    It’s all about sustainable and every year playing in UCL (4th place is enough).
