FC Barcelona Ready for Inaugural Match at Partially Completed Camp Nou on Saturday
Barcelona have announced they will play at the partially upgraded Camp Nou on Saturday. Athletic Bilbao will visit the Bilbao team in the Spanish league 30 months after they moved out to allow renovations to start.
“We’ve dreamed about the return. Now, it’s here. We’re back home. Back at Spotify Camp Nou.”
The stadium will not be at full capacity but 45,401 spectators are permitted inside based on approved permits. After final construction, it will accommodate almost 105,000 spectators, a rise from the old capacity. Barça announced finished work included an updated entryway for the team along with upgraded changing facilities.
Recent Activities
Barcelona held a fan-accessible workout inside the stadium on 7 November. Officials stated they are seeking authorization by UEFA to host the next European match facing Eintracht in December at Camp Nou. Their recent games have been held at the Olympic Stadium.
