Florentino confirms Madrid will not play at Bernabeu when La Liga returns

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez has confirmed that the Los Blancos will not play any of their remaining La Liga home matches at the Santiago Bernabeu when the competition returns. 

According to Perez, the Spanish capital club will host their games at their training venue - the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium at Valdebebas. 

The 6000 seater stadium, which is usually home to the club's youth team Real Madrid Castilla, will be equipped with new floodlights and advertising spaces, while VAR technology will also be installed for Real Madrid fixtures to be played. 

Perez says that the decision to finish the campaign away from the Bernabeu was made so renovations could be completed at the famous stadium ahead of schedule of next season. 

"We have made the decision to play in the Alfredo Di Stefano stadium in our Ciudad Real Madrid all the games in which we will play as the home team," Perez wrote in a letter to Madrid's supporters.

"This decision will allow us to advance in the works of the Santiago Bernabeu stadium."

The La Liga set to return to action on June 8th, although the matches will begin on June 11th.

Real Madrid will host Eibar on June 14th at 6:30 GMT.
