The biggest recent development for Milan concerns a change of plans for the away match in Perth, Australia, against Como. Tuttosport reports this morning:
"Milan-Como moves closer to San Siro, too many obstacles for the Perth option," addressing all the controversy around the decision.
Serie A is seeking certainty, and the approval from the Asian Football Confederation looked more like a "no." Ezio Simonelli wants a clear answer and might turn to FIFA, but the league demands confirmation quickly. It resembles the Villarreal-Barcelona situation, which was supposed to be played in Miami.
Among the AFC conditions deemed unacceptable was the request for a local referee team. The league raised several objections, and the shift now seems nearly certain. The match is likely to return to its original location, San Siro. The date is still uncertain: it cannot take place in early February due to the Winter Olympics, so the first available dates would be February 17 or 24, depending on whether Inter needs the stadium for potential Champions League playoffs.
