LEGEND'S MARK: LEWANDOWSKI WRITES HISTORY WITH FIRST GOAL AT BARCA'S NEW HOME
Robert Lewandowski scored the historic first goal as Barcelona celebrated their emotional return to a partially renovated Camp Nou, beating Athletic Club to go level with Real Madrid in La Liga.
The experienced forward put the ball in the net just four minutes into the game, which kicked off celebrations for Barca's return to their home ground following a two-and-a-half-year absence.
Barca initially intended to welcome fans back to Camp Nou a year prior, but the reopening was delayed repeatedly due to construction setbacks and various other challenges.
"This day held significance not just for me, but for everyone involved. I am very pleased that I had the opportunity to score the opening goal upon our return to Camp Nou," Lewandowski shared with Barca One.
"Having played in numerous stadiums, I can say that this one has a unique atmosphere. I am very proud of both myself and the team, as we performed exceptionally well today and secured a victory.
"I believe that scoring the first goal here is an achievement that I will always cherish."
The victory put Barca on equal footing with Real Madrid at the top of La Liga and marked a step up from the team's play in recent games.
"A few days prior, upon my return from representing my country, I had a strong feeling that something extraordinary was on the horizon," Lewandowski continued.
"We all are aware that this particular match will be etched in our memories for years to come."
Barca's coach, Hansi Flick, expressed his admiration for the former Bayern Munich striker.
"He's a player who, when presented with an opportunity, almost always converts it into a goal," Flick commented to reporters.
"It was crucial for us to score early today, as it boosted our confidence."
Approximately 45,000 supporters occupied the three available stands, while the stadium's third tier was still being built. The completion of the project is now anticipated in 2027, a year behind the initial timeline.
ELECTION BOMB: XAVIER VILAJOANA CONFIRMS CONTACT WITH HARRY KANE AHEAD OF MARCH PRESIDENTIAL VOTE
Harry Kane to Camp Nou! Discover Vilajoana’s plan to land the Bayern star and what it means for Marcus Rashford’s 2026 future.
Xavier Vilajoana told ESPN he’s set on bringing Harry Kane to Barcelona if he wins the upcoming presidential election. He’s one of four candidates in the race at Camp Nou, and he’s already working on his plan to land the Bayern Munich striker.
Vilajoana’s campaign is all about ambition. If he comes out on top next month, he wants to go after Kane. That’s his headline promise. According to ESPN, he’s made it clear: Kane is his big target.
“We’re missing a striker,” Vilajoana said. “We need a centre forward who can link up play, sure, but also finish chances. Honestly, we could use a solid centre back too. Not that our current guys aren’t good, but we could use someone experienced to balance out the young players.”
“With those two signings, plus the talent we have coming up through the academy and already in the team, we wouldn’t have to overhaul the whole squad.”
Pressed on who he wants for that striker spot, Vilajoana didn’t dance around it. “There is one. We’ve even started to make contact, and I think he’d fit perfectly, assuming his contract situation works out. That’s Harry Kane.”
He really rates Kane. “He’s a centre forward who matches our style. Kane can drop back and link up with teammates, but he’s also a classic No. 9 deadly in the box. He’s mobile; he makes things happen even when teams sit deep. He’d make a big difference for Barcelona.”
As for Kane’s contract, ESPN reports there’s a release clause in his Bayern deal around €60 million. His contract runs until 2027, and they’re talking about an extension.
Not everyone thinks Kane will leave. Bayern legend Lothar Matthaus says he’ll stay put. “I don’t think he’s leaving. Money’s not what drives him; it’s about feeling good with the club, the coaches, and his family. He’s settled, and his kids are happy. Sure, he could earn way more in Saudi Arabia, but I’m convinced he’ll extend his contract at Bayern.”
Vilajoana doesn’t see it that way. He thinks Kane’s open to Barcelona. “I know he likes Barcelona. Honestly, who doesn’t? It just comes down to having the conversations.”
So, what does this mean for Marcus Rashford? Right now, Rashford’s on loan at Barcelona, and the club can sign him for good this summer. The situation’s a bit murky if Kane comes in.
Vilajoana’s approach is to look at what the club already has before spending big. “I always say, start in-house, then look outside if you need to. Take Jan Virgili, for example; he’s playing for Mallorca now, a great winger. Maybe we look at bringing him back instead of paying Rashford’s clause.”
He made it clear, though, that the president doesn’t just call all the shots. “The president puts the options on the table, the team discusses it, and together we make a decision.”
One thing’s certain: if everyone agrees that signing Rashford is best for the team, the money will be there to get it done.
REGISTRATION GREEN LIGHT: BARCELONA OFFICIALLY ADDS JOãO CANCELO TO CHAMPIONS LEAGUE KNOCKOUT SQUAD
João Cancelo is back! Discover if Hansi Flick will use the Portuguese star to break Levante's bus at the Spotify Camp Nou.
It’s been almost 40 days since Joao Cancelo came back to Barcelona for his second spell. The club brought him in during the winter window, picking him up on loan from Al Hilal. He wanted the move badly enough to take a pay cut and didn’t even mind playing a backup role if that’s what it took.
But let’s be real: his return hasn’t gone the way anyone hoped. Cancelo has barely seen the pitch lately.
That might change this Sunday against Levante. SPORT points out that Hansi Flick could really use Cancelo for this one. Levante are stuck down in 19th and will probably park the bus, so Barça need to push forward. Cancelo’s great at getting to the byline and whipping in crosses. That’s exactly what they need.
And here’s another thing: Cancelo is finally registered for the Champions League. He couldn’t play in the earlier rounds, but now he can, and that could finally get his season going.
So far, out of eight games he’s been available for, Cancelo’s played in five and started just two. He got his first start on January 25 against Real Oviedo, but was subbed off after an hour; he just didn’t look sharp yet. Then he started again in the Copa del Rey at Albacete, in his usual right-back spot. But he picked up a pointless yellow card 15 minutes in, which threw him off his game, and Flick took him off at halftime.
Since then? He played just 12 minutes against Mallorca when the game was already wrapped up. He didn’t even get off the bench for the losses to Atletico Madrid and Girona.
Cancelo signed on for six months. Over a month’s already gone by, and so far, it’s been a frustrating ride. But maybe, just maybe, things are about to turn for him.
