Finally, the club's ground, Ali Sami Yen Stadyumu, is going to be replaced with a new ground near Maslak financial district. The former name of the district, Seyrantepe, has been changed to Aslantepe (Lion Hill) after Galatasaray purchased the ground; Aslan (Lion) being Galatasaray's symbol. The idea is to realize a stadium on the model of the ArenA in Amsterdam, and complete it in 16 months. The construction of the new stadium officially got underway on Thursday, December 13th, 2007. The new stadium will have a capacity of 52,000, making it the largest private stadium owned by a club in Turkey.

On 19 July 2007, Toki announced the auction for the multi-purpose sports complex which will be built at Seyrantepe, the field of which Galatasaray Sports Club possesses the rights for a period of 49 years.
Among the 4 companies that proposed, the best offer was suggested by Eren Talu Architecture – Alke Partnership. Contract of the tender held for the construction of Galatasaray's new stadium was signed between TOKİ and Eren Talu-Alke consortium on 23 October 2007.
Groundbreaking ceremony
As of 14 December 2007, the construction has officially started after a showy reception where the club board, some players, the minister of sports of Turkey and many other ministers attended. In the ceremony, President Özhan Canaydın stated, in summary, the following: "Turkish World of Sports will gain another big facility with the Ali Sami Yen Sports Complex and we've gathered here to celebrate its groundbreaking ceremony. This work, which will be a value add to Istanbul and Turkey along with Turkish Sports, will also serve as an honorable monument that will signify the advanced position Turkish Sports has achieved and the phases it has passed through."
