BarçaValencia Venue Still Unsettled as LaLiga Notes Progress at Johan Cruyff

Final approval hinges on technical compliance at the Johan Cruyff plus a successful reinspection.

Overview

  • LaLiga technicians report positive advances at the Johan Cruyff but say there is no formal green light yet, with audits continuing in the coming days.
  • Required works include installing VAR cameras, ensuring adequate fiber connectivity and meeting audiovisual standards before a follow-up inspection.
  • Barcelona continues to pursue the Spotify Camp Nou option, which still lacks the municipal Certificate of End of Works needed to open.
  • The Johan Cruyff holds about 6,000 spectators, with an exception to LaLiga’s usual 8,000-seat guideline under consideration, and the women’s team is slated to play there 48 hours earlier.
  • Montjuïc is ruled out due to an unreserved date and a concert on September 12, while member groups criticize the club’s communication and warn of reduced revenue and support at a smaller venue.
