Hi Sam I'm Italian and an Interista as well. I used to follow Inter at San Siro for years. Think that I readed who SS Museum it's the first (or the 2nd...) most visited museum of the whole city. Learning a little of San Siro stadium history let you the skills to recognise and see even the original structures of 1927 and each other developments. This is very cool. San Siro is a "matrioska" stadium where every new develpment conteins the former structures. Also the player who's the stadium is titled : Giuseppe Meazza is iconic. Meazza maybe the best Italian player of every time was the very first football star ever like the ones of today just on '30 of the last century He was testimonial for advertising, he frequented beatiful women and drove expensive cars and by the way was a superbe striker as well...

Im Milan fan since 2012 and my dad is since 1980s. Even though we are from Poland we've manage to go on San Siro before and as you said it's not great. The problem with the stadium is that nor Milan nor Inter are the owners of it. It belongs to the city and neither of clubs want to buy it or put money into renovation because it make more sense to buy land somewhere else and build modern stadium at this point. Milan owners actually did make a move in the last weeks to buy new land close to San Siro called "La Maura" because there is already a track for horse races there and the land itself is marked as "sport/entertainment" so they could skip the paperworks and dealing with corruption in Italian courts etc and go on to build just like that. This is also a problem in all of Italy tbf. Napoli, Roma, Fiorentina, Cagliari and other clubs wanted to build their OWN and new stadiums for years but they just ran into a bureaucracy wall. Only Juventus could afford a brand new stadium on their own, Atalanta made some improvments to their old one. It's quite sad that those legendary stadiums will be demolish because of things not related to football.

@@rimasto3692 this is also not entirely true, the real problem that you call bureaucracy is made up of many factors, the municipality of milan has asked and demands from milan and inter ethically sustainable projects and their impact on the environment and on the citizens of the area, the biggest problem it is the certainty of not starting projects and leaving them unfinished because the properties of these 2 clubs are not solid and stable, the municipality wants to know, for example, from the Inter Chinese how many years the property will still have, these companies are also out of money and the 'inter won't finance it because they are already full of debts, how should the municipality of milan trust them? Always the usual nonsense about Juventus, but what political connections? 12 years ago the club presented a solid, eco-sustainable and avant-garde project for the times and a financing plan and cost repayment solvency, guaranteed a family property that would not have sold the club 2 years later to Chinese or similar funds with halfway through the project, this is the point, the land to buy is not all public administration, the inter is looking at a private one, last thing not only juve and atalanta have their own stadium, however we should be ashamed to ask for the allotment of the Europeans or whatever when the stadiums of the biggest cities are falling apart and without facilities

I got to go to a game in October last year (Inter 2-0 Salernitana) and it was just unreal. Yes, the stadium looks a bit tired and 'dated' by modern standards compared to other teams, but the second you walk out of that stairwell and see the inside of the stadium it's just the most awe-inspiring sight. The atmosphere of a sold-out San Siro, combined with the amount of history that those stands have borne witness to, is unlike anything i've ever felt and definitely has me wanting to go back. Also, compared to the UK, buying matchday tickets is so easy and far cheaper in many cases. If you're ever in Milan when a match is on, I highly recommend a trip.

Although it’s sad to see the deterioration or the San Siro, it’s easy to forget that it’s used a lot more than most stadiums. 2 teams, both playing in Europe every season too, it’s used multiple times every week unlike the average stadium which is used 40 times a season

It's a common problem in Italy, but the San Siro has actually been somewhat upgraded with new turnstiles etc I think. In Verona and Genoa they still had Italia 1990 stickers and signage on the seats and around the stadium a few years ago.

As always Sam, a fantastic vblog that is honest. Keep up the the brilliant history in every club you visit. Your enthusiasm shines through.

Inter v United European Cup 1/4 final 1999. Never been to any other stadium that had that "presence" as you approached it. Just staggering. Magnificent atmosphere inside the ground And when Inter scored to make the aggregate 2-1 to United, it just notched itself up to 150%. The amount of crap hurled at us Reds in the lower tier from the tiers above was incredible. But when Scholes scored in front of us. 95% of the ground just went silent and stayed silent until the final whistle. Wonderful memories.

The stadium was like this 20 years ago, nothing has changed. They have to redevelop soon, but, the in game atmosphere is still something special

We definitively need a new stadium. Not only for comfort but also economically, its not possible to stay competitive and still be self sustainable without it

It is really strange that clubs like Roma and Lazio, Sampdoria and Genoa or Milan and Inter share a stadium between them. Imagine if Arsenal and Tottenham or Celtic and Rangers played at the same stadium. That would not work out well. I remember when Liverpool and Everton had a joint stadium project. The fans of both clubs did not like the idea at all and so it was quite quickly rejected, even though the rivalry between these two clubs is nothing compared to the rivalry between Milan and Inter.

7:28 Really cool they have the 2016 Chapecoense top on the museum. Really nice video. I had the opportunity to watch a "Derby della madonnina" in 2007 there and it was one of the best football games I went to, what a stadium and atmosphere.

The issue with San Siro but more over in Italy is that stadiums are owned by councils and because of the shit bureaucracy there, teams find it hard to get or have their own stadium. At the time when having own stadium didn’t matter teams from same city thought and decided to play in the same stadium because it would have been a waste to play every two weeks but today with all the games and profits a stadium for each is needed. San Siro but like other stadiums have history but if you ask me I wouldn’t think a second to move out or demolish them because what makes history is the teams that play in them but unfortunately stadium owners are so greedy and victim like it’s happening with San Siro that it’s making it impossible for teams to catch up with the rest of the world.

As a Milan fan, great work on the video. I pains me to see how run down our beloved San Siro is, but you are spot on. The municipality owns the thing and won't invest properly in its maintenance. I understand though that the municipality has other priorities and that a stadium is expensive, especially today with the expected quality. For this reason I believe, we must leave the San Siro. We need a stadium we can own. We also need it to be separate to our interista cousins. I believe we both agree here and see benefits, particularly financially. Forza Milan 🔴⚫.

You are correct basically all football stadiums that clubs in all tiers of football play in are owned by the municipal government, with the exception of Juventus, Udinese, and Atalanta. This makes revenue very difficult for a lot of clubs, even the supposedly biggest clubs (Inter, Milan, Napoli, Roma, Lazio, etc). We are by all accounts a “poor” league, most clubs struggle to break even and some clubs are even in millions of euros of debt right now.

Highlight for me as the son of a referee was watching Pierluigi Collina, who took no nonsense from the players.

I would prefer if they modernize the stadium, San Siro is so iconic and so imposing I don't see any new stadium comparing to it, but I get that the restrictions that the municipality puts in place makes such projects almost impossible. So far it looks like the project for the new shared stadium is no longer doable given Inter's financial woes, so it looks like Milan will probably look to build one alone although probably a bit smaller and probably less ambitious.

Please, it's not "AC", it's called Milan. And the other one is Inter. No InterMilan or AC, they are simply wrong. It's like if we called Liverpool "FC"

I can never understand how two teams could ever share stadiums, especially two great rivals.

Inter was playing in its own stadium, which was smaller, so it made sense to share a bigger stadium. I see it no different than Giants and the NY Jets of NFL sharing Giants Stadium and MetLife Stadium.

@Richard Humphrey But football is one of the UK's favorite past times, I wouldn't expect clubs to share anything. I'm not sure when professional football began in Italy, but cities that have more than one team would usually share a stadium since it is very rare for clubs to outright own their stadiums. I believe both teams shared the San Siro since 1947 (which I think football was still played by amateurs).

Might be falling down but its so iconic I hope they never knock it down

Iconic stadiums like that aren’t quick to try and modernise! So much history there though

You're spot on, a beautiful stadium but it is so outdated, went there last April to watch the Milan derby and at half time I went to buy a drink, there was only 4 areas in the whole ground to buy food and drink, I left as soon as it was half time and didn't return to my seat until the 60th minute 🤦‍♂️

Such a shame to see the stadium being so looked after because in terms of history, atmosphere etc its right up there with the best

An old stadium but unique atmosphere. I cannot describe, you have to see it personally

In Milan actually they are planning to build a new stadium or replacing this one.

How do purchase tickets for a game here ?what's the best way to go about it buddy.

The most iconic stadium in Italy, in my opinion

Sadly it's the same all across Italy. Improvements were made for the world cup in 1990, and they just left everything to rot after that. I went to Verona (much more imposing in person than on TV) around five years ago, and the stadium still had Italia '90 signage up. I think it's just what Italians are used to though, and don't expect any different.

nice ground! I love the HSV jersey

Wondering if the Cameroon shirt was from the infamous opening match of Italian 90 where Cameroon beat World Cup holders Argentina at the San Siro?

how long did the tour take at all please

Can you walk in the towers with the round windows? I always wondered what's in there.

Was at game Friday night what a football stadium go to verona stadium beautiful city

I like the stadium its iconic I like when stadiums look different from each other its better than the newer bowl type of stadiums which all look the same. they should keep the design its iconic but yea just keep it up to date like what we do with the medieval buildings in the European old cities

hope they renovate it and dont destroy it would be such a shame

Was Surprised to see our Cameroon shirt there…then I remember the World Cup Italia 1990 were Roger Milla n Co did a tiiiiiiing!!!!

I used to live 1 Km from the stadium, as I lad, every Sunday, I would walk with my father to watch my team's games. Now, I live abroad and obviously that stadium still holds an enormous sentimental value to me. That said, it's beyond vast improvements. It needs to be leveled and built anew. Yes, it's historic but so was Wembley.

Please, don´t be like the Britons. Don´t tear down this beautiful, historic building. From Spain I say you can do better, my Italian friends, this stadium could be renovated.

I have visited Ac Milan game back in 2018 it was great athomsphere I'm Barca fan but still enuoyed

As an Italian Milan supporter who’s traveled to England many times. I prefer the rustic character of the San Siro. It’s a temple. It’s classic vibes make up for the lack of luxury. Last time I was in Manchester I spoke to a City fan in his 50s and he talked about how he missed the atmosphere at Main Road. Micah Richards also said he misses Main Road because of its authenticity. Some Serie A stadiums need updating, I personally hope they leave San Siro alone. PS….than you for calling it San Siro😅😊.

You should visit Alliance Stadium of Juventus. That is the best atmosphere in Italy and one of the most advanced stadiums in europe

Top vid, I’ve just arrived in Milan from the UK for AC Milan Vs Salernitana. Can’t wait!

I like your narration style

Loved San Siro at Italia 90

I am from China, it was amazing to see the China shirt is shown in the museum.

i went to the museum/shop last october and they didnt have anything from inter for sale, everything was sold out 😢

Such a shame. From the outside and on TV the stadium looks like a dream, it is the stadium that appealed most to me during my teen years, even ahead of Wembley, Nou Camp, etc. Almost impossible to redevelop because the town council is playing hard ball and negotiations are further complicated by the involvement of two clubs rather than one. Milan need to move out fast, they can't wait for Inter to resolve their debt issues. By the time Inter mend their finances that train will have been missed.
