FC Barcelona has appointed Turkey-based Limak for undertaking construction works at its Spotify Camp Nou stadium in Barcelona, Spain.
Spotify Camp Nou stadium has been serving as the home stadium for FC Barcelona since 1957.
Limak will assume charge of the restructuring works, scheduled to commence next June once the football season is completed.
The agreement between FC Barcelona and Limak was signed on 31 January in the Josep Sunyol presidential box by FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta, and Limak Holdings president Nihat Özdemir, along with Limak Yatırım board member Haldun Fırat Köktürk.
The signing event was also attended by members of the club’s board of directors, Turkish Ambassador in Spain Burak Akçapar, and the Turkish Consul in Barcelona Selen Evcit, Limak Holding chair Ebru Özdemir, and Limak Holding vice-president Serdar Bacaksız.
FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta said: “The new stadium will be the jewel in the crown of Espai Barça. It will transform and modernise one of the most important sports facilities in Catalonia for the first time since the 1992 Olympic Games. The new Spotify Camp Nou is the legacy we will leave to future generations of Barcelona fans.”
