Paolo Maldini released a very interesting and powerful interview to La Repubblica. Hera are his words when asked about the new stadium:
"I couldn't put my face on a project for 55-60 thousand seats, mostly corporate. I fought for a larger stadium with some seats for the general public. Considering the average of over 70 thousand at San Siro, I was right. With a new San Siro, and more greenery, a potentially abandoned area would be revalued. Milan is influential in Europe. We should fear degradation, not the future. The great champions made the stadium iconic. But that's in the past; Milan has always looked to the future."
