Overview
- San Lorenzo announced on Tuesday that president Sergio Costantino signed an agreement adding the last 8,345 square meters previously held by Carrefour to the club's Boedo parcel.
- Those plots were transferred first to Corporación Buenos Aires Sur and will be assigned to the club for a 50-year term rather than as permanent ownership.
- The agreement requires San Lorenzo to grant sports scholarships for children in Comuna 8, build a 1,600 m² green corridor and complete at least 20% of the stadium project within ten years.
- The move closes a decades-long recovery that began after land was taken during the last military dictatorship and follows the club’s legal possession of 27,000 m² in 2019.
- The announcement comes during an internal election period with Costantino as a candidate and removes a key legal obstacle to building a new stadium while tying the project to community obligations and enforceable milestones.
