But now the club are being forced to consider beginning yet another La Liga season at their makeshift home, according to reports from Diario AS.
The club had previously put forward plans to return to their home by November of last year to mark their 125th anniversary.
When that deadline was missed, a target for El Clasico on May 10th of this year was made.
That date was also quickly blown through, with Barcelona forced to finish the season at their makeshift home.
Their most recent revised date of August 10th was once again ruled out, with new leaked footage highlighting how far the ground has to come before it will be usable again.
The video shows a dry husk of a pitch area without grass, surrounded by exposed concrete.

Deeper in the stadium, wiring hangs from ceilings and building materials litter the halls.

Empty concourses are far from finished, and bathrooms seem to have had barely any work done at all.
It is hard to imagine the bustling atmosphere amid the colours of the Blaugrana that fans were initially promised would be ready months ago.

Ian Wright names England's key mistake in first half of Women's Euro 2025 final against Spain
Ian Wright criticised Lauren Hemp 's decision making after the winger missed a golden chance to give England the lead in the first half of their Euro 2025 final with Spain. Hemp found herself with the first clear sight of goal for either side after good work by Lauren James helped hurry Spanish goalkeeper Catalina Coll and turnover possession in the box. The 24-year-old Manchester City forward steadied herself before firing a low shot from a tight angle which Coll saved well with her left foot, when James had been waiting alongside Hemp with a far clearer sight of goal. And the miss proved costly, as Spain took the lead soon afterwards when Mariona Caldentey headed home in the 25th minute. Ona Batlle whipped in a cross from the right, after good work by Aitana Bonmati, and Caldentey steered it powerfully past a stranded Hannah Hampton in the England goal. Wright said it was a huge moment in the half. 'I think she has to pass that,' said Wright. 'If she does, [James] gets a tap-in. An unbelievable chance ... she has to cut that back to Lauren James.' Wright said England were 'off it' in the first period and lacked sharpness to match Spain.

Lucy Bronze sets England record during Euro 2025 final vs Spain with Harry Kane trailing in her wake
LUCY BRONZE broke an England record and moved further clear of Harry Kane in the Euro 2025 final. Bronze, 33, was named in the Lionesses starting XI today for the clash against Spain. 2 It meant that Chelsea 's right-back won her 140th cap for England. And it moved Bronze up to joint-fourth in the most capped players charts behind only Fara Williams, Jill Scott, Karen Carney and level with Alex Scott. Peter Shilton, who played 125 times for England, is the highest capped male player. Bronze 's appearance in the final was also her 36th at a major tournament for the Lionesses. That is the most of all-time across both the men's and women's teams. Kane is the highest man on the list with 29 matches played at World Cups and Euros. Bronze's outing against Spain is also her 16th at a Women's Euros. That sees her leapfrog ITV pundit Carney for most games played for the Lionesses at the tournament. Aside from winning the 2022 Euros and making the 2023 World Cup final with England, Bronze has had a glittering career at club level. She has lifted the Women's Super League four times with Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea. And she has won the Champions League five times during her spells with Lyon and Barcelona.
