After the proposals, attempts and contacts, all the ways for the final of the Glass of the King 2016-2017 aim to Vicente Calderón. The field of the Athletic of Madrid, that fulfils his sportive life at the end of the present campaign, is the only stadium of first level that has offered to house the duel between Sportive Alavés and FC Barcelona.
The idea of the group babazorro was the one to contest the party in the new Saint Mamés, however, a concert in this date forces to the Basques to present another headquarters. And in words of his president, that will be in Madrid: "Ours first option is Bilbao and if it can not be, will go to Madrid".
And with the impossibility to contest the party in Santiago Bernabéu, the stadium of the Athletic of Madrid has all the numbers to receive to the finalists coperos. The possibility of the Camp Nou is descartada by the Alavés.
Without the Camp Nou only remains the Calderón
And it is that the president of the team blanquiazul argued it of the following way: "Surely there would be a lot of more fans of the Barcelona. We no movilizamos to so many people like the Athletic, for example". Thus it asked a "neutral field" like the Calderón. As all the ways aim to that in the stadium rojiblanco will contest , then, the last big duel of his history.
