A report from today’s paper edition of the Milano based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport has summed up Inter and AC Milan’s fight for a new stadium starting from their proposed projects to the standstill currently ongoing today.

The report begins by highlighting the two projects submitted by the clubs to both the fans and the City council, the Cathedral of Populous and the Rings of Manica-Sportium, which got fans excited with their detailed renderings and potential offerings to the local area.

However, both projects required the demolition of the existing San Siro stadium. By mid-October the City Council had made it clear that any ideas of demolishing the existing stadium were to be scrapped, a blow to both clubs.

Then, the City Council agreed for the public interest in a new stadium at the end of October, the report continues, but provided 16 conditions that must be followed by both clubs.

These include renovations to the existing San Siro and the reduced size of the buildings in order to fit within the government’s limits. A couple of weeks later the official yes was announced by the City Council, even if it felt like a no to both clubs.

Both clubs were disappointed in the restrictions, the report adds, with the pair asking for an explanation from the City Council a few days later. Yesterday the City Council answered and reiterated the need for more meetings between the clubs and the council.
