Roma welcome 'a new phase' after stadium project approved
AS Roma's plans for a new stadium have been officially approved, paving the way for a significant infrastructure development. The club has framed the approval as the beginning of a 'new phase', suggesting the project carries strategic importance beyond simply providing a new venue.
