Fans of Barcelona remain without a solid update when their iconic Camp Nou -Huis will reopen after major renovations.
La Blaugrana fans are desperate to return home, but given the multiple setbacks for the construction project, it is far from certain that they can be back before June – despite receiving guarantees from the construction company that leads the work.
Due to a busy schedule, spread over three games, the club could opt for pragmatism and remain in the Estadi Olimpic Lluis company for the rest of 2024/25.
Barcelona has confirmed their request until the end of the campaign by the local authorities to remain confirmed by the local authorities and that seems more and more likely.
There is still an optimism in holding the last matches of 2024/25 there and the previously marked date was the El Clasico collision with Real Madrid, planned for the weekend of 11 May.
Previous estimates indicated that Barcelona could increase their hosting capacity to 60,000 for that game to also bring a considerable income boost for the summer.
However, that hope seems to have been extinguished after an update by Barcelona's Vice President Elena Fort, who confirmed that the club will avoid data to prevent missed deadlines.
“From today we will no longer determine an exact date for the reopening and return to Camp Nou,” according to quotes from Mundo Deportivo.
“The photo I tell you today, which could change within a week is that the work is going at a great pace. Yesterday we published some pictures of the newly installed seats and we work on the issue of the grass.
“The interior work is also very advanced. There are some delivery data for work and we will assess when the time comes, whether it is worth playing games there in May. “
