FC Internazionale Milano unveil preliminary images of new stadium

FC Internazionale Milano has punctuated its strong commitment to the creation of a new, world-class, sustainable stadium on the outskirts of Milan, by revealing preliminary images of the Populous-designed project.

The development, which is being overseen by global architecture practice Populous, foresees the construction of a modern, sustainable and accessible facility surrounded by greenery and equipped with refreshment areas, shops and services.

The stadium would have a capacity of 70,000 and be designed to provide the best comfort and an exciting and immersive experience for the fans. It would also contribute to the development of the city and have excellent connections to the centre of Milan, integrating with existing infrastructure.

Outside the stadium, a sports ‘town’ and welcome areas for fans and everyone attending the district will be created; all of this will be accessible for 365 days a year and complement the surrounding park.

The design process, which officially started with the acquisition of the exclusive right to the area owned by Infrafin, is continuing through the work of the architecture firm Populous and the frequent meetings being held by the Club’s top management with the institutions and stakeholders involved.

The project will be centered on the ideas and needs of the fans: with this in mind, a survey has been launched and will involve the entire Nerazzurri community.

The collection of opinions began this month with a survey dedicated to traffic, and will continue over the next few months, with additional topics relating to Inter’s new Home.

Declan Sharkey, Senior Principal and GM of Populous Italy, said:

We are proud to be working with Inter on this incredible project and we share a joint aim of creating a state-of-the-art, sustainable stadium that the club and its fans will be proud to call home.
