São Paulo is conducting a series of renovation works in Morumbi and promises very visible innovations for fans in 2019, including the installation of two large screens, for the light exchange and modernization of cloakrooms. The club calculates that it will be able to play in its stadium from the third match as principal in Paulistão, on February 3, against São Bento .
The Morumbi will receive three matches of Glbad America America from 2019: opening on June 14 and two more in the group stage. Some reforms will be made at the request of Conmebol, such as the temporary enlargement of the current press space, but most of the work had already been planned by São Paulo.
– We are considering a total investment of R $ 10 million for the Morumbi modernization, with a legacy for the next 30 years. And he has the locker rooms, which are paid by Ambev – said Eduardo Rebouças, director of the club's infrastructure, to LANCE! .
The modernization of cloakrooms, which will be 100% banked by Ambev, is at work more serious that is done in Morumbi. From 2019, both teams and the referee will enter the field through a single tunnel located behind the goal of the main gate. At present, each team has its own tunnel. There will be a huge zone of coexistence outside the locker room, which São Paulo calls a "mixed zone", very similar to what we see in the matches in Europe and in the competitions of the FIFA.

The towers in which the current reflectors are located will be preserved, but the current lamps will be replaced by new ones and will be installed, one on each side, in this structure. Philips will be responsible for the installation.
– The reflectors we depend on for import. We bought it in September and plan to arrive. I hope to have the new lighting already in the first Paulista game we play in Morumbi. We will have more blisters now. We are 288 today and we are going to 400, adding both sides, so we will have to adapt. They will take out the light bulbs that are there today and put new ones on them. The electricity will be between 30% and 40% cheaper. Since we have financed this, you are paying part of this cost to the economy. The tendency is to divide in four years the payment of this one. When I started trading, it was $ 6 million. He left less than half – explained Rebouças
– The big screens that we bought and that we intend to pay with advertisements. It is a very high cost. It will be one of the biggest, I think loses only to the one who has in Corinthians. Ours will be 21×7. There will be one on each side, mounted on the lighting towers, facing each other in the middle of the field. It was $ 2 million and a little bit. When I started trading, it was $ 5 million R $.
São Paulo is also building a generator room, a specific space for VAR and other less visible news. According to the director of infrastructure, it is planned to leave the facade more beautiful.
– I wish to change the facade of Morumbi. Today, it is lit by neon lights, it breaks all the time. I want to do with LED. We would like to take the letters, clean and change LED neon, which has a much better quality. We see with Philips.
Eduardo Rebouças estimates that after these reforms, São Paulo will no longer have to make major changes in his home before 30 years, unless he can get money to cover the stadium. Exclude the lower sector and "stretch" the numbered near the field, leaving the Morumbi with more sand, will not be possible because the stadium was abandoned .
to be covered in 2019, which will greatly expand the protected stadium area from the rain.
