""The objective is to have it ready for the Athletic Bilbao match," Sentelles told Esport3 during an open house event at the stadium site. "As soon as we receive the 1B license, we'll be able to open the Lateral stand. That will give us a capacity similar to the Olympic Stadium, and from that point, it will make sense to return and play all our games here.""
""Barcelona president Joan Laporta struck a more cautious tone when asked about Sentelles' comments, noting that while the club is eager to come home, it depends on final approvals. "If we get the 1B license next week, and if there are no unforeseen issues, we will return as soon as possible," Laporta said. Earlier this week, more than 20,000 supporters filled the partially renovated stands of Camp Nou for a historic open training session, the first time fans had been inside since May 2023.""
FC Barcelona aims to play Athletic Bilbao at the renovated Camp Nou on Saturday, November 22, marking a return after more than two years away. The executive overseeing the renovation said the objective is to have the stadium ready and that receiving the 1B license will allow opening the Lateral stand and restore capacity similar to the Olympic Stadium. President Joan Laporta said the return depends on final approvals and the timing of the 1B license. More than 20,000 supporters attended a historic open training session in the partially renovated stands. Construction continues, with cranes visible and upper tiers unfinished. The club targets a 62,000-seat capacity before the end of 2025.
