San Siro project faces fresh delays after citizen sues city

The Milan and Inter joint stadium project in San Siro faces additional delays after a local citizen sues the city council. The dispute centers around the transfer of land surrounding the historic stadium to a joint entity owned by the two clubs, Stadio San Siro SpA. The lawsuit claims that the sale was conducted hastily, just days before the stadium's 70th anniversary, which would have triggered a preservation order prohibiting any future sale or demolition.

Authorities reportedly ignored warnings from advisors to delay the sale, leading to the current legal obstacle. Milan and Inter had anticipated a faster progress for their shared stadium project, but this legal setback could prolong the process and potentially delay the groundbreaking even further.
