‘Hear the goals during the afterlife’: Barça fans get to inter ashes at club’s new memorial

FC Barcelona has launched a memorial for fans to store their ashes at Camp Nou, featuring 26,000 niches. Prices range from €2,490 for 10 years to €10,000 for eternity. The memorial, designed by Quique Montoya, will include illuminated squares and a mural of the club's history. Over 1,000 fans have already reserved spots, contributing to the stadium's redevelopment costs, which have ballooned to nearly €2 billion. The renovation aims to increase capacity to 105,000, making it the second largest stadium globally. Delays and labor disputes have affected the project, with some subcontractors unpaid for overtime. FC Barcelona will temporarily play at the Olympic Stadium during renovations.
