Barcelona president Joan Laporta met with senior executives from Turkish construction company Limak Holding during his trip to Istanbul. The discussions aimed to ease tensions and strengthen cooperation between the two parties in order to complete the renovation of Spotify Camp Nou stadium. The atmosphere between the two sides was positive, with both sides agreeing to put their differences aside and focus on finishing the project as soon as possible.
The immediate priority for both Barcelona and Limak is to ensure the stadium is fully operational for Barça supporters. The third tier remains closed until the roof is installed, and there are no plans to open it before then. However, some VIP boxes in the ring between the second and third tiers may open between the end of 2026 and beginning of 2027, generating additional revenue for the club.
Legal disputes over penalty clauses related to construction delays remain a possibility, but were not discussed during the recent meetings in Turkey.
