Barça tightens the screws on Limak over Camp Nou works
New penalty clauses set deadlines for the Botiga and VIP seats; if they are missed, the club could switch builder for the roof.
FC Barcelona have added new penalty clauses to their contract with Limak, the Turkish construction firm handling the Spotify Camp Nou renovation, to avoid further delays. According to Mundo Deportivo, citing La Vanguardia, the club and the investors who advanced the financing want the builder to speed up the timetable, since any delay would hit the club's accounts.
The two checkpoints are the new Botiga, which must be finished in January, and at least 75% of the VIP seats completed by 31 March 2027. If either is missed, changing builder for the roof is even being considered. Under the schedule, the roof should be installed between October and November 2027.
Meanwhile, the club has already booked the Estadi Olímpic de Montjuïc from January to start the 2027-28 season, with the aim of reaching 95,000 seats at the start of 2028. In October, during the Champions League match between Galatasaray and Barça in Istanbul, the Barça delegation made contact with Limak.
