CF: Milan and Inter must table over €250m to buy San Siro – the details

According to a report from the Revenue Agency, ordered by the city council in Milan, AC Milan and Inter would have to pay a total of €255m to buy Giuseppe Meazza and its surrounding area. 

There have been many reports about the possibility of building a new stadium in the San Siro area in the last few months. Beppe Sala, the Mayor, has been working hard on keeping the clubs within the city limits, pushing for a sale of the stadium and its surrounding area.

According to Calcio e Finanza, citing the report from the Revenue Agency, Milan and Inter would have to pay a total of €196m to buy the stadium and its surrounding area. In addition to this, they would also have to pay €59m to the council for urbanisation works in the area.

As such, the total cost would be €255m and that is before a new stadium has even been built. The cost of the latter depends on whether Milan and Inter intend to build a completely new stadium, or go with the San Siro renovation hypothesis.

While the process is moving forward, both Milan and Inter have a clause that means they have no obligation to proceed with the San Siro project, should they deem Rozzano and San Donato to be more suitable. The recent meeting with the San Donato council attests to this.
