MILAN (Reuters) - Milan's football clubs and the city municipality are in talks to try to resolve a dispute over plans for a new stadium to replace the nearly century-old San Siro arena.

Serie A's clubs AC Milan and Internazionale FC, respectively owned by U.S. fund Elliott and Chinese electronic retailer Suning, in July filed a request to build a new jointly owned 60,000-seat stadium in the San Siro area.
