| Official announcement from FC Barcelona regarding the postponed return to the Camp Nou stadium |
The anticipation among Barcelona's faithful continues as the club has once again postponed its eagerly awaited return to the historic Spotify Camp Nou currently undergoing a massive and transformative renovation.
The upcoming fifth-round La Liga clash against Getafe this Sunday September 21st will not grace the hallowed turf of Camp Nou as initially planned. Instead the team will continue to play its home fixtures at the Johan Cruyff Stadium. This follows the precedent set during their fourth-round match against Valencia which was also held at the temporary venue.
In an official communication the club pulled back the curtain on the decision explaining that its administrative and legal teams are working tirelessly to secure the final necessary permits for the modernized stadium's inauguration. The statement emphasized that while this delay might be disappointing it is a crucial step to ensure a safe seamless and well-organized return for everyone to the new Spotify Camp Nou in the very near future.
Concluding its message Barcelona addressed its members and supporters directly expressing profound gratitude for their unwavering support and understanding throughout this pivotal phase. "We recognize your passion to return home and we promise the wait will be worthwhile. We thank our fans for their patience and understanding and we will soon provide more details regarding the match organization and ticketing procedures."
