Delegates from Milan have recently been in the city to study the Hill Dickinson Stadium as part of their fact-finding mission for the San Siro project, according to a report in La Gazzetta dello Sport.
The Hill Dickinson Stadium, which officially opened in 2025, has a capacity of 52,769 spectators. The waterfront venue, built at the Bramley-Moore Dock site over the River Mersey, hosted its first Premier League game on August 24, where Everton beat Brighton 2-0.
Both Milan and Inter officially acquired the San Siro site last November, including the famous Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, which was previously owned by the city council. Both clubs are planning to build a new stadium at the same site, although, adjacent to the current Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.
Construction of the new ground is expected to begin in 2027 with both clubs intending to have a state-of-the-art venue ready to host matches during EURO 2032. Demolition of the current stadium could take place in 2031.
Everton is not the only stop for the five-member delegation from Milan. They are also looking to visit other venues, including Tottenham Hotspur’s Stadium and Borussia Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park, on their fact-finding mission.
