Wednesday 21st April 2021

Osasuna have completed expansion work on the Estadio El Sadar.

The Spanish La Liga side are based on the northern city of Pamplona have added an extra 6,500 seats, taking the stadium's total capacity to around 25,000. This includes 1,300 rail seats which are suitable for safe standing.

Other areas of the ground have also been renovated including a new roof, new exterior cladding and improved hospitality areas. The club have also built a new museum and club shop.

The project was originally due to be completed last year but was delayed due to global pandemic. The original cost of €16m has also grown, with the club hoping to pay the debt back within the next 3 years.
