June 5 – LaLiga’s Valencia CF say they have made significant progress in their long-running effort to complete their new stadium following the sale of land around the stadium site.
The club hope the Nou Mestalla, the partially built 54,000+-seat football stadium in Valencia intended as a replacement for their current home, will be finished in time to host 2030 World Cup matches.
