Stunning images of Barcelona's new-look stadium have been released and they suggest something special is afoot.

The Nou Camp is one of football's most iconic stadiums but closed last summer as the Catalan side look to redevelop the ground that was first built in 1957.

With cranes taking out the 100,000 seats and tearing up the turf, work has been ongoing with fans now very excited about how the fresh new stadium will turn out.

The College of Architects of Catalonia have released computer-generated images of how the modernised £1billion stadium could look and it's quite a sight to behold.

While retaining its original essence, the Nou Camp will see its capacity increased to 105,000 with escalators to be inserted to allow fans to make their way to the highest point.

It will also see a revamped media suite with a theatre-like room for press conferences.
