The “Si Meazza” Committee, yesterday, through its President Luigi Corbani, filed a complaint with the Court of Auditors regarding the sale of San Siro to Milan and Inter by the Municipality of Milan.
In the complaint, it is stated that the current situation “seems to provide elements of evaluation that raise concerns of serious and significant financial damage caused by the actions of the administrators and officials of the Municipality of Milan, in collaboration with the representatives of the involved private parties, at least partially already occurred and which would grow to very high levels with the continuation and completion of the operation.”
According to the association, the current facility “is inalienable because it is a work of public property, by a no longer living author, seventy years after its execution. The ‘Meazza’ stadium, starting from January 2025, is already under protection and is safeguarded, and therefore cannot be demolished. The procedure is entirely anomalous, as it has been conducted mostly personally by the mayor of Milan in a dialogue with the private counterparts, which, in fact, distorts the legal and logical order of the required legal procedures and removes spaces from the prerogatives of municipal officials and executives, to whom the law reserves all management activities.”
The association also criticizes the purchase tender, which concluded on April 30, stating it took place “without the Municipal Council of Milan ever having resolved to put up for sale either the Meazza stadium or the surrounding areas. To the undersigned, it would appear that there is no resolution of the Municipal Council through which the following were decided: the sale of the Stadium and the area, the demolition of the ‘Meazza’ Stadium, the construction of a new stadium on the area of the Parco dei Capitani, and the acceptance of the proposal by the two joint-stock companies.”
