Work at the new Blaugrana stadium continues 24 hours a day, literally, so that Barça can return to Les Corts on schedule. Although the task is very difficult, one detail gives hope to FC Barcelona fans: the first seats of the second stand are already installed.

First seats

In place of the turf, the inside of Spotify Camp Nou is still covered by containers, cranes and construction materials. Everything will have to be removed at least 10 days before the first game if the club is to have time to prepare a fit pitch. However, a novelty has also appeared, which gives some hope and joy to Barça fans.

The first red seats, specifically 93, have been placed on the second level of the Gol Nord stand. The images were published on X by the account @Obras_Camp_nou. On the outside, the metal supports on which the structure of the third stand will be based are ready.

Tick-tock, tick-tock

If there is no imponderable, we will be here at the end of November 2024, declared Elena Fort, institutional vice-president of FC Barcelona, in an interview for Mundo Deportivo in November 2023. Asked what she meant by an imponderable, she specified that it was a pandemic, a global catastrophe, something that, to understand us, would not be in the hands of Barça or the construction companies.

However, now the date set for the expected return to the Camp Nou is December, although without specifying the exact day. The construction company Limak has three months left to deliver to Barça a Camp Nou with 65,000 seats. Time is running out, and the club and Limak are well aware of it, as, since last week, work continues 24 hours a day.
