Roma's new stadium in Pietralata wins final approval

Italy's Conference of Services has approved Roma's new stadium project in Pietralata, marking a key milestone for the club's future home. Sports Minister Andrea Abodi expressed satisfaction with the 90-day approval process, well under the standard 270 days, while Mayor Roberto Gualtieri confirmed the stadium is now a certainty with construction targeted to begin in 2027. The stadium is expected to be completed within three years, with the first stone potentially laid by March. Officials also hope the project will support Italy's Euro 2032 bid and inspire similar developments, including a planned stadium for Lazio.
