“When I think about the next 10 years, we hope that football clubs can have their own stadiums.
But, for the Foro Italico, there are big projects such as the tennis internationals. In this sense, the coverage of the tennis center will be fundamental, we can no longer afford ‘no shows’ just because it rains. Furthermore, if NBA Europe is created, the Foro Italico wants to become central for basketball in Europe by representing a perfect home”. Thus Diego Nepi Molineris, managing director of Sport and Health, during the conference “Rome, city of great events” organized in collaboration with Il Messaggero, at the Campidoglio. “The Olympic stadium must be recreated in a way that conforms to the concept of also having two other stadiums, which could be built in the city in the coming years. It must become a real added value by going beyond the football dimension; at the Olympic stadium, for example, the concerts, in a period like the summer, exceeded the takings from football in the remaining 10 months with a turnover of 7.5 million against the 7 generated by football”, he concludes.
