According to Marca, the new La Liga season is about to start, and Barcelona still has 7 players not registered yet, and the renovation of the Camp Nou Stadium has not been completed.

Barcelona will usher in their first La Liga game of the new season this Saturday night local time, and they will play away against Mallorca. At present, head coach Frick is not sure which players can be available, as the issue of player registration is still not resolved. The club is working hard to complete the registration of all players, the most important of which is Joan Garcia. If Joan Garcia cannot be successfully registered, then Penia will have to replace the injured Terstegen and the unregistered Szczesny.

Recently, Ter Stegen decided to allow the club to submit his medical report to La Liga in order to decide whether his injury time is more than four months and can use some of the cap space to help register Joan Garcia, which is undoubtedly good news for Barcelona. But the question is when the La Liga will make a decision, and Barcelona hopes to solve this week so that the former Spaniard goalkeeper can play for Barcelona.

Laporta said after the Gambel Cup match against Como: "We are working hard on the situation in Ter Stegen and hope to register Joan Garcia. As for other players, we also hope to complete the registration this week." Although the Barcelona president is confident about the registration work, he also cautiously stated that he will not make any guarantees.

However, the problem is not limited to the goalkeeper position, there are other players who need to register, and the injury special case of Ter Stegen can only help register one player. Therefore, Barcelona is waiting for the audit results of the VIP box for the Camp Nou Stadium so that La Liga can verify it. This step is crucial because it can bring Barcelona back to the 1:1 rule, thus completing the registration of all players. Currently, in addition to Joan Garcia and Rashford, the players who need to register include Szczesny, Badge, Gerald Martin, Ford and Bernal.

At the same time, Barcelona is stepping up the renovation of the Camp Nou Stadium to ensure that the team can return to home games against Valencia on September 14. It was also a race against time, as the city found 200 defects on the stadium over the weekend, which prevented the club from obtaining the necessary permits.

Laporta said: "We are doing everything we can to ensure that the project is completed on time. We work closely with the city government and everyone wants to return to the home court as soon as possible. This is the wish of members and fans." Like the issue of player registration, the Barcelona president did not disclose the specific completion date.
