UEFA has issued Barcelona a firm ultimatum to Barcelona to resolve their financial plans for the 2025/26 Champions League. The club has faced significant challenges in completing the first phase of renovations of the Camp Nou, struggling with construction delays and pending clearances. UEFA has issued a directive, setting September 21st as deadline for Barcelona to confirm their home stadium for the Champions League group phase. If they pick a particular stadium, they must stick to it at least till after the group stage phase as UEFA prohibits mid-phase venue shift.
