Barcelona set to wear special shirt for final home game of the season as they prepare to move out of Camp Nou ahead of renovation - Reports
Barcelona will reportedly wear special jerseys for their final home game of the season at the Camp Nou. The Blaugrana will welcome RCD Mallorca on Sunday (May 28) for their penultimate game of the season, which will also be their last home match of this term.
The Blaugrana will move out of the Camp Nou after this season, as the stadium is set for a major renovation. According to Spanish publication SPORT, players will sport a special jersey to mark the occasion and thank fans for their unwavering support.
The special shirts will also carry the motto:
“Full of history. Full of future.”
Barcelona will play their home games at the Montjuic Stadium from next season. As per the current plan, Camp Nou's renovation is expected to be completed by late 2024, following which the Blaugrana will return to the stadium.
The Mallorca game will be a special occasion, as Barcelona have won La Liga this season. The game will also be midfielder Sergio Busquets' last home match for the club, as he has decided to move on after his contract expires at the end of the term.
Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets breaks silence on future amid Saudi Arabia links
Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, as his contract with the Spanish side approaches its end. However, he recently stressed that nothing is decided yet amid interest from several clubs.
When recently asked about his future, he said (via Barca Universal):
"I haven't signed anything yet. There is interest from several clubs, but I won't make a decision until the end of the season; now it's time to enjoy!"
He was also asked whether his potential next destination would be connected to former teammate Lionel Lionel Messi's future. Busquets, though, denied such suggestions,:
"My future linked to Messi's? Everyone wants to play with Leo; he's the best in the world, but my future is not linked to Leo's future."
Messi's contract at Paris Saint-Germain expires this summer, with Barcelona and Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal reportedly fighting for his signature.
