The Nerazzurri and the Rossoneri go to the mayor after the rift over the stadium. In case of no agreement, it would be a definitive break
Official call today at Palazzo Marino: mayor Beppe Sala is waiting for Inter and Milan to talk once again about the stadium, a ball that has been passed and re-passed for four years without ever scoring a goal. All while the New San Siro project has stalled in a dead end and in recent days the tension between the clubs has risen like never before: on the one hand, the Rossoneri’s desire to build a plant on their own has been publicly flaunted; on the other hand, the disappointment of Zhang’s club for the “escape” of his cousins was mounting, also combined with the awareness of being able to move independently for an all-Inter solution. The meeting had been planned for days given the electric atmosphere all around and had to remain private according to the intentions of the clubs, then the mayor himself announced the meeting. For Sala it would have become necessary just after the rumors according to which both teams would now aim for other areas besides San Siro to find a lasting home: “I called the two clubs on the phone and asked to come to me – he explained Room on the sidelines of an event in the Municipality – because sometimes I too am in the position of not having information and reading it in the press. While it is clear to me that Milan are looking at La Maura with interest at this point, I have not understood where they are looking instead Inter. So they’ll come to me to clarify things together.”
The break?
—
The CEO Nerazzurri for the Corporate side Alessandro Antonello and AC Milan president Paolo Scaroni will be at Palazzo Marino today. The two managers have kept the ranks of the Cathedral project in recent years and, despite the latest uncertainties, relations between them remain cordial, as good neighbors should. Milan is only expecting an institutional meeting, perhaps clarifying but certainly not decisive: the La Maura racecourse, an area full of greenery not far from the Meazza mentioned by Sala, would in fact be just one of the Devil’s alternative projects together with Rozzano and Sesto. Inter, which in the meantime continues to keep the dialogue open with the Singer family for the New San Siro, as if nothing had changed, wants to verify RedBird’s new strategy live. It would be the definitive tear – not in private but in an institutional setting – of the joint memorandum signed five years earlier in which Inter and Milan undertook to work side by side for a new facility. President Zhang’s disappointment over the lack of dialogue with Gerry Cardinale has now filtered through, while today Antonello will in any case keep Suning’s alternative project for an all-Inter stadium in the municipality of Milan confidential: the area belongs to a private individual and is protected by an agreement confidentiality with the owner.
