With the start of the league scheduled for the 14th of August, Unión Deportiva Ibiza has no time to lose. The Can Misses stadium is already being prepared for the team’s arrival in the Smartbank league next season.
This very morning work began to remove the extra stands in the south end, installed more than a year ago, when FC Barcelona visited the island to face the local team in the Copa del Rey competition.
The promotion of the “Celestes” to professional football means adapting the stadium to the standards required for playing in that category, among which the installation of a natural grass pitch is a priority.
In addition, the Professional Football League requires that, in order to compete in the second division, the club must have its own pitch or have been granted use of the facility. The present of UD Ibiza, Amadeo Salvo, spoke about this after the promotion match against UCAM Murcia, confirming that “it has been discussed” with the Vila Town Council. “I don’t think there will be any problems,” said the businessman. However, the details of the transfer are not yet known.
