Inter Corporate CEO Alessandro Antonello has made clear that there’s still a possibility that the new stadium could still be built in place of the existing San Siro along with AC Milan, but that there is also a backup plan in place.
Speaking outside the ECA meeting in Milan, as reported by FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri executive explained that as of yet, the Nerazzurri would be prepared to either build on their own or move forward with plans with the Rossoneri.
Where until recently it had seemed clearly the case that both Inter and Milan were looking at building a new stadium in place of the San Siro as their first choice with other options as just backup options, now it looks as though the Rossoneri have made a change of course according to reports.
Speaking about the situation, Antonello stated that “I remain confident in Plan A, in other words building at San Siro together with Milan.”
“After three and a half years of intense work, especially after getting the general approval of the City Council, a lot more thought would be needed to give up on a project like this,” he continued.
“We’re now waiting for the conclusions Milan’s analysis regarding the La Maura possibility, but it seems to me as though Snaitech has clarified the situation in the area,” Antonello noted, referring to denials by the Hippodrome area’s current owners that the area could be sold.
“Having said that, Inter have clarity on what our next steps would be whatever the case may be, whether Milan decide to stay at San Siro whether they decide to move plans elsewhere.”
“We have a Plan B in place which is there to protect the interests of the club and, above all, the fans,” Antonello made clear.
