Joan Laporta’s inability to provide an honest and clear update on the renovation of the Spotify Camp Nou is now beginning to get out of hand, especially with Barcelona once again staring at a delay

Barcelona played the entire 2023-24 season at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys on Montjuic, about 4km from the Camp Nou, a ground that has around 40,000 fewer seats than the old Camp Nou.

Barcelona reportedly secured a backup plan if Camp Nou is unable to stage matches with fans during the first few months of the new season.
