Court blocks Real stadium plans
Print Edition
REAL Madrid’s plans to remodel its Bernabeu stadium were thrown into doubt yesterday after a court in the Spanish capital suspended an agreement between the club and the city government that is crucial to the project.
The court ruled that the deal between Real and the Madrid council, which would allow land adjacent to the stadium to be incorporated into the stadium overhaul, should be suspended because the European Commission is examining it for possible illegal state aid.
The Commission said in December when it announced its investigation that the property deal appeared “very advantageous”.
“The court is adopting the (suspension) measure due to the launching of a process by the European Commission relating to possible state aid given to Real Madrid,” the Madrid court said.
Real did not immediately respond for comment on the court’s ruling.
