An update on the ongoing efforts of La Liga giants Barcelona to return to base at the renovated Spotify Camp Nou has early this week been provided.
The info comes courtesy of Mundo Deportivo, and unfortunately, is less than encouraging…
With the new Spanish season now officially underway, the renovation works at the Camp Nou have been kicked up a notch over recent weeks.
This comes amid long-term hopes of the stadium being available for use for Barcelona’s home meeting with Valencia on September 14th.
If the latest word stemming from the media on Monday is anything to go by, however, then such a development, by the day, is becoming more and more unlikely.
Barcelona are yet to receive the necessary certificates to send to the city council to push the process over the line.
MD, in turn, go as far as to suggest that the Blaugrana facing Valencia at the Camp Nou this weekend ‘would be nothing short of a miracle’.
Instead, the fixture is likely to be contested at the Estadi Johan Cruyff.
