Other Club Stadium Developments




AC Milan and Inter have finalised the purchase of their San Siro stadium and confirmed plans to demolish and replace it with a 71,500-capacity arena.
The demolition of San Siro, widely regarded as one of the world's most prestigious football stadiums, has been mooted for years as its condition has deteriorated over time.
Now the two clubs, who have shared the stadium since 1947, have paid €197m (£173m) to the city council to take control of the structure and surrounding land, which they say is a sign of "shared ambition for long-term success".
The new stadium will have a capacity of roughly 4,000 fewer seats than the current San Siro and will be designed by firms operated by Sir Norman Foster and David Manica, who played crucial roles in the planning of the new Wembley Stadium.
BBC Sport has spoken to key figures and finance experts in order to determine whether the move makes sense and find out if it could help two of Europe's most famous clubs compete regularly against the more wealthy Premier League sides.


I was there the night this was posted, just so I could tick off what had been an ambition since the 1990 World Cup. Brought a tear to my eye thinking they are going to pull it down. Amazing from the outside, inside does look worn, there are quite a few ropey views, toilets probably the worst I've seen.

It is a amazing stadium though and it would have been brilliant if they could have done something to replicate it whilst improving what needs to be improved.

I would highly recommend a visit before it goes.
