Rome - Serie A side Roma Tuesday presented plans for the new Franco Sensi stadium, which will be built on the western outskirts of Rome. La Repubblica quoted President Rosella Sensi as saying that his father, who died in 2008 and in whose honor the stadium will be named, "waited for this moment since he took over the club (in 1993)."
The two-level structure is expected to hold 55,000 spectators and should yield Roma an income up to four times higher than the Stadio Olimpico, which the red-yellows share with the other Roma side Lazio.
Construction should last about two years once it begins, with the club not saying how much it would cost.
