Milan’s iconic San Siro stadium is aging and lagging behind modern European venues, highlighting Italy’s broader struggle with outdated football infrastructure ahead of Euro 2032. AC Milan and Inter want to build a new €1.2 billion stadium, citing renovation challenges and low matchday revenue. However, bureaucracy and heritage concerns delay progress. Only six stadiums in Italy were redeveloped between 2007–2024, far fewer than in other major leagues. The government plans to fast-track upgrades, but without swift action, Italy risks losing Euro 2032 matches to co-host Turkey.
