Serafini calls Milan’s stadium pursuit ‘a game of dice’ after San Siro proposal
AC Milan and Inter submitted their proposal to buy the San Siro area, including the stadium, earlier this week. The pundit Luca Serafini has called the pursuit ‘a game of dice’.
It had been coming for several months, but Milan and Inter finally presented their proposal to buy the San Siro area and build a new stadium earlier this week. Now, the city council will evaluate the proposal and provide an answer by the summer.
In his latest column for MilanNews, the pundit Luca Serafini spoke about a range of topics, including the stadium pursuit. He highlighted that while the proposal is some sort of step forward, nothing has changed as everything remains highly uncertain.
“Today San Donato, tomorrow San Siro, then San Donato again and now San Siro. A game of dice. Politics and bureaucracy are winning this time too, English and American powers are not enough to uproot certain legacies from the muddy ground.
“This is a country (for decades, let it be clear, regardless of the government) that can squander all the money it wants on missiles, tanks, parks for prostitutes and drug addicts, salaries for parliamentarians, but doesn’t want to spend even a euro on sports facilities.
“Unless, of course, there is a World Cup or a Winter Olympics on the horizon: then plates of lasagna and bricks magically appear for everyone,” he wrote.
