Real Madrid will not play any of their remaining La Liga home matches at the Santiago Bernabeu, Florentino Perez has confirmed.
The Spanish giant will instead play their games at their training venue, the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium at Valdebebas.
Perez confirmed the decision to finish the campaign away from the Bernabeu was made so renovations could be completed ahead of schedule.
“We have made the decision to play in the Alfredo Di Stefano stadium in our Ciudad Real Madrid all the games in which we will play as the home team,” Perez wrote in a letter to Madrid’s supporters.
“This decision will allow us to advance in the works of the Santiago Bernabeu stadium.”
The updated was due to be completed in the summer of 2022, but Perez’s decision may see the project finished ahead of schedule.
Some of the renovations on the stadium include the installation of a retractable roof.
While a removable pitch will be kept so the arena can be used for other events such as concerts.
