Barcelona Open ‘Masia-Centre De Formacio Oriol Tort’ – The New La Masia (Photos)

By Chris Wright

About a week or so ago, Barca closed the doors to the famous 18th Century farmhouse in Les Corts (above) that had been serving as the dormitories for their youngsters since the late 1970′s for the very last time, and duly cut the ribbon at the shiny new, bells and whistles, glass-and-concrete La Masia building that has been built alongside the club’s Joan Gamper Sports City training complex.

You’ll be happy to know that we’ve managed to procure a handful of photos of the new hub – ‘La Masia-Centre De Formació Oriol Tort’ – which loosely translates as ‘the place where we will decimate your young memory until only the twin arts of tiki-taka and tapping up Cesc Fabregas remain’…

And the best bit?

They got Scalextric!
