FC Barcelona confirms Camp Nou stadium return date on August 10

Madrid, June 25 (UNI) FC Barcelona today confirmed the club will end its two years in exile and return to Camp Nou Stadium on August 10.
The official Barcelona website announced the club will play its traditional Joan Gamper pre-season opener in the ground, which has been undergoing extensive renovation works over the past two years.
Barca has been forced to spend that time in the former Lluis Companys Olympic Stadium on the top of Montjuic, although the venue hasn't been popular with supporters, who despite large numbers of tourists among their number, have rarely been able to fill the ground, which has a capacity of just below 57,000.
The club returns to its traditional home with building work still going on, with Barcelona confirming that; "among the parts still needing to be finished, are the construction of the new third stand, the double VIP ring, the installation of the roof and the preparation of some interior spaces and the remodeling of the area around the ground."
The ongoing work means the capacity on August 10 will be around 60,000, which is well below the final capacity of 99,354, but considerably more than the 25,000 initially expected for the Joan
Gamper game.
