Barça closes €300m bond issue to finish the Spotify Camp Nou
The bonds, placed by Goldman Sachs, add to the 1,500 million already approved. The stadium is due to be finished in the first half of 2028.
FC Barcelona has completed a bond issue worth €300 million to finish the works on the Spotify Camp Nou, after receiving the green light from Spain's CNMV market regulator. According to Mundo Deportivo, Goldman Sachs was the exclusive placement agent for the operation, which members approved at the General Assembly on 19 September with 90.79% of the votes.
The money comes on top of the 1,500 million already approved. The stadium is expected to be fully finished in the first half of 2028, with the roof going up during summer and autumn 2027. Once complete, it will hold 104,600 spectators, the biggest capacity in Europe.
Ferran Olivé, the club's economic vice-president, told the assembly there will be no further overspend and no need to borrow more, and that the extra income generated by the works is the only guarantee behind the debt.
