Barcelona has announced that it has submitted a formal proposal to UEFA to host the 2029 Champions League final at the "Camp Nou" stadium.
Sport.Biz reports that the Catalan stadium has hosted Champions League final matches in 1989 and 1999.
"This proposal highlights Barcelona's status as a city with extensive experience in hosting major international events and the "Spotify Camp Nou" as a world-class stadium.
The "Spotify Camp Nou", which is undergoing a major renovation to strengthen its status as one of the world's most modern, innovative, and iconic sports facilities with a long history of hosting major international football matches, has all the necessary qualities to be an ideal venue for the Champions League final. The stadium has historically been recognized by UEFA as a high-level venue and is the largest stadium in Europe.
The club and the organizations involved in the project are currently waiting for UEFA's final decision as part of a competitive tender process with several bidders. The announcement of the venue for the 2029 UEFA Champions League final is scheduled for the fourth quarter of this year," the club said in a statement.
