The Mayor of Milan Beppe Sala will soon meet with AC Milan and Inter to discuss the possibility of them remaining at San Siro after the renovation project was announced.
On Wednesday, the plan to spend €300m on San Siro to improve the stadium itself and the surrounding areas was unveiled at the City Hall.
According to Tuttosport (via MilanNews), Sala will now meet Milan and Inter in the next few days to talk and find out their thoughts on the plans.
“I will convene the clubs very soon, we will certainly meet next week. We are in touch and the relations are very good,” he said.
“At this point it is for the clubs to express interest or at least study the San Siro dossier as there is a constraint which is whether the works can be done without closing the stadium.
“I also understand that if this is not the case it is very difficult for them but if instead it can be done it could become the hypothesis is more attractive for them too.”
In particular, Sala is targeting Milan who are further ahead in their bid to build a new stadium in San Donato compared to Inter’s move to Rozzano.
A few days ago, the Rossoneri received the first official green light from the Council in San Donato which started the entire bureaucratic process. The road is long, but the red side of the city seems to have made his choice.
Sorry but what was wrong with the joint project? By now it would have been under construction or am i missing something.
How id 300m better then 1.2b?!
It all about business. If Milan build their own stadium, every match they got 100% profit from ticket sales. If Milan stay in the San Siro, which owned by council, every match they must pay a lot to the stadium owner
a stadium, can last around 25-40 years depending on maintainance.
so if we take minimum 25years, its around 4m per month at 1.2b.
So the question, will our revenue from tickets merchandise and building program will be more than 4m per month? ticket revenue per game should be around 2-3m per match at 60k, normal price. so for a team with 3 different competition its about 5-6games per month.
so whats the pro? we gain revenue in other incomes. rental, services, hotels, etc aside of match revenue which we dont get from renting SanSiro
Con? If we dont fill the stadium, its hard to pay loans + gain extra revenue.
for us supporters, its a way of show us Club is commited to winning every match. and if we fail horribly, we will become Bolton.
San Siro is 100 years old. You forget to count the revenue from the entertainment hub, 1.2b is not limited to the stadium, it’s whole complex which also include hotel, store, museum, theatre, etc which also give income.
The 1.2b project include ownership of the complex, integrated entertainment hub, club museum, club office, and longer lifespan.
Milan will be stupid to accept this useless proposal table by sala after wasting 5 good years, if he could not understood both teams then I can’t see the reason why both Milan and inter to understand him. no way finger crossed
no way…!!! that 300m renovation is only 5% of San Siro, then possibility of higher rent.
5% renovation what for? new toilet?
300m only 5% San Siro it’s over-budget
Keep squirming at our feet, Sala. You worm.
