Barcelona Admits Camp Nou Renovations Will Not Begin Until Summer '18

Barcelona "admitted that the project to renovate Camp Nou is delayed, for at least a year," according to Juan Jiménez of AS. The club was expecting to begin renovations this summer by "taking down the seats in the north and south ends of the stadium." This was announced when architecture firm Nikken Sekkei was awarded the project. Barcelona CEO Óscar Grau, however, announced that "the work will begin in the summer of '18." This "had been expected due to the delay of the conversations about the new General Metropolitan Plan." For the work to begin in '18, the club will have to reach an agreement with the Barcelona City Council and the neighbors in the area, "as well as secure the necessary financing" (AS, 1/11).
