Inter and Milan Unveil Design for New Stadium

Inter and Milan presented the project for the new stadium at San Siro during a ceremony held at the Castello Sforzesco in Milan. The 71,500-seat arena will be called the Generali Stadium. Construction is planned to begin in 2028.

The project has been under discussion for more than ten years. Blocked projects led to the cancellation of the previous design, and the teams started from scratch. The design was prepared jointly by Foster+Partners and MANICA. The team of Lord Norman Foster and David Manica also worked on the design of the new Wembley Stadium in London.

The concrete X-frame on the exterior is inspired by the Milan Duomo and supports a double-curved roof. The stadium will have two tiers of stands and form a continuous 360-degree bowl. The seat incline reaches up to 37 degrees. The LED panels on the exterior will light up in different colors depending on which team is playing that day.

The naming rights have been sold to the Italian insurance giant Generali. The reported fee is 26 million euros per year, and the contract will run for 25 years. Total revenue is expected to reach 650 million euros. That would put it second, after the Wanda Metropolitano deal Atletico Madrid struck with Riyadh Air. In European competitions, the stadium will be known as Milano Stadium.

The two clubs acted together in November 2025 to buy the land where the current Stadio Giuseppe Meazza stands. After objections aimed at stopping the sale were rejected, the project received final approval.
