The official signing for the transfer of the San Siro site to the company jointly owned by Inter and Milan has been postponed, with the process now expected to be completed next week.

The delay comes as both clubs race against the clock to finalise the deal before the November 10 deadline.

As La Gazzetta dello Sport reports, via FCInter1908, the setback is not linked to the clubs or the Milan City Council, but to technical banking procedures.

Before the contract can be signed, roughly €100 million must first be transferred to the municipality’s accounts.

That figure includes the initial payment for the purchase and VAT.

Furthermore, it includes a portion of pre-existing debts owed by the clubs to the city.

The holdup means each passing day shortens the window available to finalise the transaction before November 10.

This is the key date after which new regulatory constraints would take effect.

While both clubs remain confident of completing the signing “on the wire,” the delay adds another layer of tension.

Indeed, to a process that has already stretched over years of bureaucracy, revisions, and political friction.
