JAKARTA - The proposal to establish a new Milan stadium in the San Donato area has drawn strong criticism from local residents.

In fact, the protests led to clashes with the police on November 15, 2023.

As is known, the Rossoneri chose private land in San Donato Milanese to plan the construction of a new stadium.

This will certainly make them leave the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium which is used with Inter Milan.

However, local residents are not happy with the development plan. To the extent that a petition signed by more than 1,300 people was submitted to the authorities.

According to Il Cittadino, public debate lasted for five hours. The way the conveyation of aspirations was tense until they were interrupted three times by protesters and led to police intervention.

In fact, Milan's plan to build a new stadium has the support of the Mayor of San Donato Milanese. However, the majority of local councils refused.

The Rossoneri have a reason behind the stadium construction plan in San Donato. They want to get through the bureaucracy that usually occurs when they are playing at the San Siro.

The status of private land in San Donato will cut the bureaucracy because it becomes a private investment that does not require a local council.
