2018 UEFA Champions League Final for Atletico's New Home?

The president of Club Atletico de Madrid, Enrique Cerezo, ensured that the La Peineta Stadium will host the UEFA Champions League Final and the Copa Del Rey Final within the first year of its 2017 reopening. Mr. Cereza stated Tuesday that he wanted his team to have "the best stadium in the world".

But if the words of Mr. Cerezo prove true, that will mean failure for the Kiev Olympic stadium's bid to host the 2018 CL Final. In recent years, UEFA had repeatedly awarded hosting rights for major finals to stadiums that were just opened (for example, Aviva Stadium, Stadion Narodowy, and Arena Nationala, but they hosted Europa League Finals).

From a Madrid native I can tell that Atlético is generally watched for non football fans or no extremist fans as a likeable club, in contast to the arrogance of Real Madrid's bankcheck in the same town, and the last seasons, Atlético could compete against both Real and Barcelona with a much smaller budget.

I they take an agressive approach on ticket discounts, they could keep the old fans (to reduce the "new-stadium effect": "a treason to club history", "will be very far away"...), attract fans in the new neighborhood and may be get new football fans who right now cannot afford season tickets in current economic situation.

If the keep prices, I suposse (again, only as a person not interested in sport shows) the won't get new fans to a new stadium further from downton when the could go for the same price to a "mytical" downtown stadium.

As all inner city road next to the river, it willl be underground.


This stretch was not removed because of the stadium issue. Once demolished, the plan is to finish it.

The problem is that this proyect created a monstrous debt to the city council, and the now governing party and its supporting party made this debt an issue in their campaing. Let's wait to see if the proyect is finished. As stated some post before, the underground road would be paid with the benefits of the house development in the staium area an the fabric next to it. With house property sells and value fall and the issue on the allowed height of the two towers in the stadium area, the lees the benefits, the lees probable the proyect will be finished as initally planned.

The works go ahead and Atletico debut the 17-18 season in their new stadium. The deadlines to follow are the following. Next month is scheduled to end placing all the supporters, in November the lifting of the deck will, in February 2017 seats already decided will be placed ... in June will end the works and will be two months to prepare the first league match of 17-18.

Madrid has two stadiums whose capacities are large enough to host a UEFA Champions League Final: Santiago Bernabeu and La Peineta. The Santiago Bernabeu Stadium's planned expansion is currently on hold, and I think that's why Cerezo proposed a UEFA CL Final for the La Peineta Stadium. If one city has two stadiums large enough for a CL Final, should only one of that city's stadiums host all future CL Finals in that city?

In this aereal photo the stadium appears to be far away from the city.
Spanish cities tend (historically) to end abruptly without low density single homes.
This has changed in last times of course, but not in this area:


By the way, may be many of you don't know where the nickname of the stadium comes (La Peineta)...

First remember the original stadium design:

And this is a peineta:

I think it's a very smart touch by the architects to echo the basic layout of the Vicente Calderon here. The main stand is a separate structure (at least with the upper tier) and the rest is a continuous sweep around the other three sides. The Bernabeu and the Nou Camp might have the glamour factor but this could actually become the best stadium in Spain once opened. The new San Mames is very very good but this one is much more aesthetically unique.
