Barcelona will spend next season away from the Nou Camp after redevelopment plans were finalised.
The Espai Barca project was approved by the club's board on Thursday night and will see the stadium and its surrounding facilities improved in a £1.3billion renovation project. The plans are backed by US investment firms Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan, who are set to be partners.
Next season will therefore be the first time the Catalans have spent the season away from the Nou Camp since the 1950s and will instead take temporary residence at the Estadi Lluis Companys, which is located in the south western of the city in Montjuic.
