Milan to learn stadium fate soon

The Rossoneri are hoping to build a 48,000-seater
stadium that will include a hotel, sports college,
restaurants and children's rides
AC Milan will find out if their plans to build a new
stadium in the Portello-Fiera Milano City area will
be given the green light on Tuesday evening.
The Serie A giants have plans to build a new
48,000-seater stadium which they hope to move in
to before the start of the 2018-19 season.
They have made a bid for the land in the urban
area of Portello, but face stiff competition from
investment company Vitali for the location.
Fondazione Fiera, who own the land, were initially
set to make a decision between both interested
parties on Monday, but postponed their decision
and are now expected to make an announcement
on Monday at 18:00CET.
"I have been authorised to meet again with AC
Milan and Vitali before making a final decision,"
Fondazione Fiera Milano president Benito Benedini
told reporters.
"The quality of both projects and the importance of
the area in question requires that, even at the final
stages, Fondazione Fiera does everything to make
the correct decision for everyone involved."
Milan's proposed new stadium will include a hotel,
sports college, restaurants and children’s rides,
with the Rossoneri hoping it will be one of the
most innovative arenas in world football.
