Barcelona Ready for Historic Match at Upgraded Camp Nou over the weekend
Barça revealed their first game will take place at the still-under-construction Camp Nou over the weekend. Athletic Bilbao will visit the Basque side in domestic competition 30 months after they moved out for construction to commence.
“We envisioned this comeback. The moment has arrived. Home again at Spotify Camp Nou.”
Attendance will be limited though over 45,000 attendees can be present under the licence granted. After final construction, it will accommodate close to 105,000 fans, a rise from the old capacity. Officials confirmed recent additions comprise an updated entryway for the team and new dressing rooms.
Recent Activities
Barça organized an open training session at the Camp Nou earlier this month. Officials stated approval is being pursued by UEFA to host the next European match against Eintracht Frankfurt on 9 December in the renovated venue. Their recent games have been held at the Olympic Stadium.
