Barça admit return date to Spotify Camp Nou is ‘unknown’

If the club cannot return to their old home in March, the return will have to wait until next season.

Last week, FC Barcelona explained how the club is planning a staggered return to Spotify Camp Nou. However, the return overview did not include a clear time frame and as things stand, this is the main area causing the most concern among the Barça faithful.

Today the Catalan club admitted they don't know when they can return to their spiritual home, with March mentioned as a possible return even though only a small percentage of the ground is open to fans. The club also claim that if March does not materialise, they can opt to play at the Lluís Companys Stadium in Montjuic until the end of the 2024/25 season.

Work at Camp Nou continues

Work on the Spotify Camp Nou is progressing steadily and developments are clearly visible, but according to the club, a series of incidents have occurred that have caused significant delays compared to what was planned.

Currently, both club and construction company Limak meet weekly to discuss the latest developments.

March is an important date, because the eighth finals of the Champions League will be played then. If Barcelona qualify directly, they will have to play it between March 4 and 12, 2025 and would like to do so at the Spotify Camp Nou.

But optimism within the board is low when it comes to a return in March and if they stay with Lluís Companys they will have to negotiate an extension of Montjuïc's lease with the Barcelona City Council.
