Barcelona submit license request to use Montjuïc stadium for 2027/28 season

Barcelona are preparing contingency plans for the later stages of the Spotify Camp Nou renovation project.

As such, the club has requested permission to continue using the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys during the first half of the 2027/28 season.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the request has already been submitted to the Barcelona City Council as a precautionary measure while the club prepares for one of the most delicate phases of the stadium redevelopment.

Preparing for crucial Camp Nou phase

The concern centres around the planned installation of the new roof at Spotify Camp Nou, a process expected to begin during the summer of 2027.

Technical studies being analysed by the club estimate that the work could take between four and five months to complete.

That timeline would directly affect the beginning of the 2027/28 campaign, making it difficult for Barcelona to host matches at the renovated stadium during the opening months of the season.

Because of that uncertainty, the club has begun preparing alternative solutions to avoid logistical complications later down the line.
