The clubs presented the project in the Courtyard of Arms at the Castello Sforzesco, in Milan. The architects are Foster + Partners and MANICA, led by Lord Norman Foster and David Manica. Generali takes the naming rights and becomes official insurance partner of both clubs.
The stadium holds about 71,500 in two tiers that run in an unbroken bowl around the field, with the end stands raked at up to 37 degrees. It anchors a 281,000-square-meter district of parks, shops and public space, backed by the clubs' owners, Oaktree and RedBird Capital Partners.

Corriere dello Sport reports that Lautaro Martínez, Inter's captain and center-forward, will not be fit for the derby. The paper also rules out the defenders Benjamin Pavard and John Stones, the midfielder Curtis Jones and the forward Luis Henrique. Inter have published no team news.
It expects Josep Martínez to return in goal and Pio Esposito to start alongside Marcus Thuram, with Nicolò Barella and Hakan Çalhanoğlu in midfield. Gazzetta dello Sport, Italy's biggest sports daily, agrees, and calls the rest of the defense a "rebus" — a puzzle. Cristian Chivu, Inter's head coach, speaks to reporters at 9:30 AM ET today.
CORRIERE DELLO SPORT · OCT 30
Calcio e Finanza, the Italian football-business site, reports that Generali will pay €650 million over 25 years for the stadium name — about €26 million a season. Neither club has published a figure. For comparison, the site puts Juventus's Allianz Stadium deal at €103.1 million from 2023 to 2030.
