This trophy, which will play Barça before the As Italian, will finally be played in The Johan Cruyff, The 6,000 spectators stadium in the Sports City of San Juan de Espí.

Barcelona will not play the Joan Gamper at Camp Nou because The works will not be finished on that date. And this is another fiasco of Joan Laporta, determined to launch false hopes to his fans, although many are already there. There are several times that from the club have indicated dates that were not at the end of the correct return to Camp Nou.
“Due to The magnitude of the work executedit has been impossible to meet all the requirements required by the regulations that regulate obtaining said license, despite the will of the club to put into operation the Spotify Camp Nou by sectors, ”says Barcelona now. Less than a month ago, he launched a video in which they assured – although it knew it was practically impossible, as it has now been demonstrated – that the return to Camp Nou would be in the Joan Gamper.
It should be remembered that the League facilitated things to Barcelona by placing the first three days of the next league away from home, so the Catalans will play the first game at home on the weekend of September 13 and 14 (day 4), which allows them to have another month of margin to continue with the works of their stadium and thus be able to arrive in time to play at the Camp Nou in Liga.
