The Italian Football Federation has granted final approval on March 13th allowing the club in Romania's capital (likely a translation error; context implies Italy) to proceed immediately with constructing its own new arena at Pietralata costing approximately €958 million, which is expected to be completed by summer of next year. This project aims not only for AS Roma but also serves as part of Rome bid strategy towards hosting the 2034 European Championship alongside other venues like San Siro and Stadio Flaminio in Milan's new stadium construction plan (likely contextually linked).
