The board chaired by Joan Laporta wanted to announce this Friday the signing of a definitive agreement with investors to obtain the necessary financing to make the Espai Barça a reality worth 1,500 million. The Blaugrana board had validated the formula on Thursday afternoon and wanted to finish agreeing on the conditions with the financiers. But he has issued a brief statement in which he indicates that “he is in the process of closing the financing of Espai Barça and informs that he will close the negotiations next week”
Barcelona had set the date of March 31 as the deadline for reaching the financing agreement and during the morning of this Friday the possibility of offering a press conference was being considered, but in the end it has been aborted because it has not yet been reached an agreement.
The delicate economic situation of Barça and the instability of the financial market caused some executives to consider the possibility of postponing the project until the outlook for the banking and investment sector improves, but finally they opted to achieve the objective set for financing and that This is what Barcelona communicated on Thursday after the board meeting. In fact, the club informed the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) on Thursday afternoon that its first team will play its home games next season at the Estadi OlÃmpic LluÃs Companys de Montjuïc, information that the federation must notify, in turn, to UEFA. Meanwhile, in Montjuïc the starts have already begun to accommodate the installation to the needs of Barcelona. The board approved that the next Joan Gamper Trophy will already be held on the magic mountain.
