JAKARTA - UEFA has revoked San Siro's right to host the Champions League final. The decision could not be separated from AC Milan and Inter Milan's plans to build a new stadium next to the San Siro.
UEFA will again give the right to host the Champions League when the new stadium, dubbed Nuovo Stadio Milano, is completed.
For the next three years, Milan will not host the Champions League final. The Milan City Government cannot guarantee that the San Siro will not be affected by the construction of a new stadium.
"The Milan City Government cannot guarantee that San Siro and its surroundings will not be affected by renovation work," read an official statement from the Milan City Government as reported by The Sun.

The UEFA has confirmed that a decision on the stadium to replace the San Siro for the new Champions League final host will be made in June 2025.
Initially, San Siro was planned to hold the final of the Widd-Up Ear trophy in 2027. Due to the construction of a new stadium, UEFA has just predicted that the year's final could be shifted again to Wembley Stadium, which last season held the top match of the Champions League.
The San Siro will undergo massive improvements with AC Milan and Inter Milan supporting the move.
The construction of the new stadium is part of the plan to prepare for Euro 2032.
Italy made an offer to host Euro 2032 with Turkey. San Siro needs to be modernized in order to meet standards.
San Siro has hosted several of its biggest football matches in 99 years of history.
The 80,000-view stadium is the venue for the Champions League finals in 2001 and 2016.
The stadium is also the venue for the European Cup finals (names before the Champions League) in 1965 and 1970. In the 1965 edition, Inter Milan managed to come out as champions.
