1 week agoWhere will Barcelona host Champions League football?
Barcelona will host Paris Saint-Germain at the Olympic Stadium because Camp Nou redevelopment remains unpermitted and not yet cleared for reopening.
Barcelona's squad spending limit has dropped to €351 million ($411.8m) -- down €112m from last winter -- while Real Madrid's has increased to €761m, LaLiga said on Friday. The league's squad cost limits, which are made public after each transfer window, denote the maximum amount that each club is permitted to spend on first-team players, as well as coaching staff, reserve and youth teams.
Delays in finishing the revamp of Barca's historic home, where they have not played since the end of the 2022-23 season, led the Blaugrana to play their first three games of their LaLiga title defence away from home. But with their return to Camp Nou reportedly now set to be pushed back to October and their lease on the Olympic Stadium having expired, Barca are set to take on Valencia at Estadi Johan Cruyff, the 6,000 capacity home of their B team.
