The hypothesis of the AC Milan new stadium project built in the Sesto San Giovanni area must overcome its first obstacle in order to have the chance to be carried forward, writes Calcio e Finanza.
In fact, there is a municipal election which will be held tomorrow. The current mayor is Roberto Di Stefano is up against Michele Foggetta, a candidate who is supported by the Democratic Party and Movimento 5 Stelle (Five Star Movement).
The stadium issue has become a central theme of the electoral campaign: Di Stefano is pressing to bring the new stadium to the Sesto San Giovanni area while Foggetta opposes this opinion as he doubts the capabilities of the city to house such an important facility and its impact on the neighbourhoods as well as the traffic problems during matchdays. AC Milan, and even Inter, are taking stock of the situation and will be interested in the results of the elections. Tomorrow evening, we may be able to understand more.
