AS Roma Receive Green Light for New Stadium as Construction Could Begin in 2027

AS Roma have received the green light to proceed with plans for their long-awaited new stadium, with construction expected to begin in early 2027.

The development represents a major step forward for Roma, who have spent years working towards the construction of a dedicated home to replace the Stadio Olimpico.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Rome Mayor Roberto Gualtieri has confirmed that the project has received the necessary approval to move forward. Construction is expected to take approximately three years once work begins.

That timeline would potentially see Roma's new stadium completed around 2030, although the exact opening date will depend on the progress of the construction and remaining stages of the project.

A purpose-built stadium would also have significant commercial implications for Roma, providing the club with greater control over matchday operations, hospitality and other revenue-generating activities. The venue could also be used for concerts and other major events outside football.

For Roma supporters, the latest development brings the club closer to finally having a modern stadium of their own after years of proposals, discussions and delays.

With construction now targeted for early 2027, the long-awaited project appears to be entering a decisive phase.
