Barcelona to Host Historic Match at Renovated Camp Nou over the weekend

Barcelona have announced they are set to host at the partially upgraded Camp Nou over the weekend. Athletic Bilbao will visit the Bilbao team in La Liga 30 months since relocating for construction to commence.

“Returning home was our dream. Finally, it’s happening. We are back at Spotify Camp Nou.”

Attendance will be limited but 45,401 spectators can be present under the licence granted. Once fully finished, it will accommodate close to 105,000 fans, increasing from the former 99,000. Barça announced completed upgrades featured an updated entryway for the team plus modern locker rooms.

Stadium Testing

Barça organized an open training session at the Camp Nou in early November. The club said they were hoping for permission by UEFA for their upcoming Champions League fixture against Eintracht Frankfurt in December at the stadium. They have been hosting matches in the temporary ground.
