Roma get go-ahead to build new 52,500 football Colosseum
December 7 – Serie A side AS Roma have been given the go-ahead to build their own stadium after an on-off project planning process that has taken five years to complete.
Currently sharing the Stadio Olimpico with arch-rivals Lazio, Roma’s new stadium will be built in the Tor di Valle area of the city, will have a capacity of 52,500 (expandable to 60,000) and will feature a 14,000-seater ‘Curva’.
It will be Italy’s most modern stadium and is expected to begin construction in April/May next year with completion in time for the start of the 2020/21 season.
