There is a stadium over the road that Barcelona B play at that holds 15,000, surely that would be the venue for any RL match. The Nou Camp is bloody huge I'd be surprised if they opened that up.
"Incredible but true, the Catalan Dragons enter the sphere of FC Barcelona: they are invited to play a Super League match at Camp Nou."
"The president of FC Barcelona has indeed proposed to his counterpart of Catalan Dragons, Bernard Guasch, to receive Wigan, in June 2019, on the mythical lawn Camp Nou. A stadium that only recently received rugby matches on one occasion: in the Top 14 final between Toulon and Racing 92 in June 2016."

So Magic Weekend at the Camp Nou in the next few years then?

Never mind Barcelona, anymore plans for The Pies to play anywhere really glam, like The New Den (again)?
