JAKARTA - Barcelona's planned return to Camp Nou next month is threatened due to licensing issues related to the reopening of stadiums.
Barcelona announced that Joan Gamper Trophy will be held against Como on August 10, 2025 and will be the first phase of reopening Camp Nou after two years of renovation.
However, to be able to play matches at the stadium, the Blaugrana first needed to obtain several different permits from the local city council.
ESPN said that the decision would be taken in the coming days, depending on whether the permit was granted after a series of inspections.

Some of the necessary permits have been granted, but there are still issues related to the safety of access to the stadium.
Meanwhile, Barcelona is analyzing alternative options, with the possibility of playing games at the Estadi Johan Cruyff even though the stadium where the women's team played was only 6,000 spectators.
Barcelona have spent the last two seasons playing at the Olympic Lluis Companys Stadium during Camp Nou's renovation.
The initial plan is to return in November 2024, but that date continues to be postponed, with Barcelona finally announcing earlier this month that they will play Joan Gamper Trophy at Camp Nou.
Tim Catalan tersebut ingin memainkan pertandingan ini sebagai uji coba di stadion itu sebelum musim La Liga dimulai, dengan kapasitas jika pertandingan tetap berlangsung di Camp Nou kemungkinan akan dibatasi 20,000 hingga 30.000 penonton.
The Blaugrana then had one month before their first home game of the league this season against Valencia in early September 2025, after La Liga gave them permission to play their first three away games.
Construction of the stadium will continue throughout this season, with an estimated completion of the fastest start of the 2026/2027 season.
Meanwhile, Barcelona's home game next season will be played with a limited number of spectators between 50,000 and 60,000 people.
