Inter and AC Milan have held a final meeting over the new San Siro project, with the crucial summit expected before the end of the month.

The two clubs are looking to build a new state-of-the-art stadium adjacent to the current Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, but the city of Milan was not on board with plans to knock the old structure down.

A new plan involves paying for the surface rights of the entire area to build the new stadium and keep the San Siro.

Under the new plans the third level, which is considered unsafe, would be removed and the rest of the stadium preserved in some form for non-sporting events.

According to Tuttosport Inter and AC Milan directors Mark Van Huuksloot and Domenico Barile met with council budget assessor Roberto Tasca yesterday to discuss the necessary costs and the economic impact of the new stadium.

They talked about the surface fee and the valuation of the existing San Siro at €100m, a price the two clubs accept.

The basic variables have now been agreed, with a decisive meeting expected before the end of February to move forward with the project.
