Barcelona have revealed an ambitious blueprint for the ‘Espai Barca‘ project which will see Nou Camp revamped and extended to 105,000 and a new arena built for the club’s basketball team.

The construction process for ‘Espai Barca’, which translates as a space for Barcelona, has been revealed in a stunning video simulation showing the club’s plans.

The video shows how the Nou Camp’s capacity will be raised from 99,000 spectators to 105,000 and the installation of a roof covering the whole arena. Currently three sides of the stadium are exposed to the elements.

Building work on the stadium will take place in the post-season over three years, beginning in 2019, so (incredibly) the team can continue to play at the ground without disruption.
