Camp Nou Madrid - Arabstoday Barcelona are understood to be considering leaving Camp Nou, their home ground since 1957, and building a new state-of-the-art stadium in the city.

The club had initially looked t0 invest in a \"comprehensive modernisation\" of Camp Nou, but with the current stadium unable to compete with the other modern stadia across Europe in terms of the facilities and services provided, a decision could now be taken to build a new purpose built home. The board are particularly keen for Barca to remain as one of the world\'s leading clubs both on and off the pitch hence why the construction new stadium, with provisions for a theatre, fitness centre, a hotel, new offices, and increased commercial areas, is a rea possibility. Rosell will meet with the board to discuss the matter in the second week of March, according to El Mundo Deportivo, where they will discuss a whole host of subjects as part of the club\'s strategic plan until 2016. Home sweet home Barca\'s current home, the magnificent Camp Nou, is currently Europe\'s largest stadium with a capacity of 96,366, and has been their home ground for the past 55 years.
