AC Milan's future could lie away from the iconic San Siro Stadium.

The club has announced tentative plans for a new 48,000 seater arena with a retractable roof, to open for the 2018-2019 season.

Arsenal's Emirates Stadium is said to have been used as inspiration for the design.

Milan currently share the city-run, 80,000 seat San Siro with rivals Inter Milan.

Juventus have enjoyed success since moving into their own stadium, where they have control of merchandising and commercial areas, while AS Roma are also going to move into their own stadium in the future.
