The group, with Carlos Slim as the maximum shareholder, takes control of the largest construction contract in Spain in recent years.
After years of waiting and more than a run-in with the Madrid City Council, the Merengue club will be able to begin the renovation and remodeling works of its stadium as soon as this 2018/2019 season ends.
The club has announced that the works will be carried out by the construction company FCC. “” It is the cheapest offer, with the shortest execution time and with a construction system that minimizes the inconvenience to the operation of the stadium and the environment, “according to Real Madrid.
These are the main challenges you face a work that will last until the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2023, above all, to keep the stadium open for the next seasons.
Among the conditions that the construction company has had to fulfill are that of changing its current facade, deleting the side towers, a new grandstand with 3,000 new seats on the east side, in addition to enabling new accesses, new recreation areas and, most impressive, with the installation of a retractable roof.
The FCC group has become an expert in the works on football stadiums. In the capital, he has already carried out the works of the Wanda Metropolitano, the new coliseum of the Club Atlético de Madrid. Abroad, he also built the Allianz Arena in Munich
