CorSera: Milan turn to La Maura with split from Inter and San Siro project now likely

After four years of working together, AC Milan and Inter seem intent on moving forward separately in the new stadium project according to a report.

This morning’s edition of Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews) report that confirmation came yesterday during a meeting at Palazzo Marino (the city hall) between the two clubs and the Mayor Beppe Sala, during which the Rossoneri officially announced that they are formally interested in the land at the La Maura racetrack.

If this solo project were to materialise then the Nerazzurri also made it clear that they too ready to go it alone and have already identified an area on which to build their own stadium in an area outside the Milan city limits.

The La Maura hippodrome area seems to have taken the lead compared to all the other options that still remain running for Milan, namely Sesto San Giovanni and San Donato. Over the next 2-3 weeks, the Devil will carry out in-depth analyses and inspections of the private area and then communicate a decision to Inter and the Council.

While waiting for news on this front, the discussion concerning the future of San Siro still stands given that the current stadium is destined not to be demolished as things stand, but it would not have Milan nor Inter playing there.

Mayor Sala said he was embittered because ‘nobody wants the old San Siro anymore’, though he holds on to hope that the two clubs can still carry on the project together.
