Can imagine something like this in Tottenham Hotspur' colours would look lovely along the Hypocolius Lea...

Milan have released plans for their new stadium, which will be based in the Portello area of the city and have a capacity of 48,000 - drastically less than that of their current home San Siro.
The Serie A club share the stadium with rivals Inter but have begun working with the company behind Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena and the Bird's Nest Olympic Stadium in Beijing on a new venue.
San Siro, which formerly had a capacity of 100,000, currently holds just over 85,000 fans - although Milan attendances have gradually dwindled in recent years.
In a statement confirming the plans, Milan also revealed the stadium would have an 'English model', in that it will be easily reached by public transport.
The stadium will be less than 30 metres high from ground level and be built using soundproofing technologies, to limit noise in what is an urban area.
Announcing their plans, Milan called the potential new structure "A unique place, planned in collaboration with the Milan Polytechnic Architecture Department and that aims to be open seven days a week and not just on match days.
"It plans to hold 48.000 spectators and aims to provide a truly exciting experience with particular attention towards families, with the latest comforts and the best in security."
Edit - this is their new headquarters, I don't think they've released the design for their new stadium yet?

Why less than 50k? Must be a good reason.

They average about 40k and with grounds in Italy like the Olympic stadium they are monsters and the crowds lost...

Not sure, but i do like the squareness of the outside design coupled with the apparently now unavoidable round shape inside

Sounds like a gentrification of a fan base is in full swing. Interesting that the twitter account mentions 'family' and 'safety'.
I guess that means smaller capacity, higher ticket prices, less 'undesireables'.

Quite possibly. And with some of the stories coming out of Italian football I wouldn't blame them. Although the smaller capacity also just seems like the smart move from most perspectives.
I also think that to a large extent Juve have set a standard for Italian football with their new stadium, helped kickstart what could be a very good move. The San Siro is iconic, but far from a modern football stadium and quite possibly holding Milan back.
West Ham and their fans should take note. They're essentially doing the opposite move of what Juve did and Milan and Roma are planning it seems to me.

So the blokes that get dragged round the shops by the missus can still peer over the edge to see the game below?

This is the stadium that we should be emulating IMO.... It cost only 211 million euros to build and was built overlapping the site of the old stadium in the same manner as our original proposed plan where we'd build alongside WHL and then move to the new stadium when 3/4s complete.A few more recent snaps of Bilbao' snazzy new San Mamés stadium...

How comparable is that in terms of cost? And in terms of timing a move? One being built in a city of around 350k people in Spain during significant financial troubles for a team considered to be the "national team" of the local region. Compared to us building a (slightly) larger stadium in London of all places...

Well one would assume that material costs should be reasonably identical for the two projects? Labour costs would have course be higher here in the UK with our minimum wage laws, I don't think they have anything similar in Spain? When I spoke about emulating the project however, I meant more in terms of the way that they built the new stadium and opened it before it was complete, in a similar manner to our initial proposal. I remember reading something from Levy about there not being enough certainty about constructing a project in this way to achieve the funding required, I would therefore like to know the differences between our initial proposal and the construction that Bilbao completed.
