This time it might finally be the real breakthrough. After years of back and forth, one step forward and a hundred back, Milan and Inter are close to taking control of San Siro. Once purchased, the stadium could be demolished and rebuilt by the two clubs. Corriere della Sera provided fresh updates this morning, dedicating an entire feature in its sports section to explain the details and the next steps with the city council to finalize the transfer of ownership.
The headline reads:
"San Siro, agreement reached with Inter and Milan."
Just below is a quote from mayor Giuseppe Sala: "It must be ready by 2031." That date is no coincidence, since in 2032 Italy is set to host the European Championship together with Turkey.
The subheading includes more technical details:
"The council will approve the sale for €197 million, this is the first step. Then it will be a race against time."
Another formal clarification follows: "The city will not cover demolition or redevelopment costs."
