Brescia desperate for new stadium

Over ten years ago Brescia Calcio presented their first plans for the construction of a new stadium. Now, ten years later, most fans have long ago detached themselves from their dream and accepted that a new stadium will never come. Others, though, think that a new stadium is now closer than ever.

In the meantime, Brescia president Gino Corioni is increasingly desperate and has already threatened to go the Cagliari way and play their home matches at a venue out of town. As he called continue playing at the dilapidated Stadio Mario Rigamonti “embarrassing”, he contemplated a move to either Cremona or Mantova. Not on the other side of the country like Cagliari, but still about 50 kilometres away from Brescia.

At the same time, rumours flared that the club may be aiming for a site south of the city near the A21 and A4 motorways and the town of Borgosatollo. This resulted from a visit from Corioni to the site which has recently been rezoned to a potential development area.

These rumours may however also have been created to put pressure on the city of Brescia to redevelop the Stadio Rigamonti. The Democratic party of the city has favoured such move, comparing it with Modena’s Stadio Alberto Braglia. This stadium was slowly redeveloped over a number of years into a relatively modern arena.

A new or redeveloped stadium would likely have a capacity of 20,000, the minimum requirement for playing in the Serie A. It is said that president Corioni has recently dusted off the designs of their failed plans from the beginning of the millennium.

These plans envisioned a stadium that would be used for multiple purposes 365 days of the year, modelled after the typical English stadium. The recently completed Juventus Stadium is also reported to be an inspiration of the president.
