OFFICIAL: La Cartuja to host next four Copa del Rey finals
The Spanish FA (RFEF) announced that La Cartuja stadium will host the Copa del Rey final. They also confirmed that it will host this year's final plus the next three.
The venue for the Copa del Rey final has now been decided. The RFEF has announced that the La Cartuja stadium in Sevilla will host the next four finals of the tournament.
The Copa del Rey, which is currently at the quarter-final stage, will host the final on 18th April, so the teams which are still in it know where they will have to travel to if they make the final.
The fact a venue has been chosen for four years is very surprising give that it's far from common for this to happen. The final is usually decided too late on and complications normally come about.
The presentation of La Cartuja as the host for the next four finals will take place on Friday 7th February at the same time as the semi-final draw. Granada are already through and the winners of the other three quarter-finals will join them there. They are Athletic Bilbao v Barcelona, Mirandes v Villarreal and Real Madrid v Real Sociedad.
The Spanish FA, in a statement, highlighted it's 57,000 capacity and announced that the decision was taken this Wednesday "by the adjudication table which met at the Ciudad del Futbol".
