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!

i hate barca. but i wanna live there!!!!
The Scalextric definitely sold the fact to me it is a top notch place. Some might call it the ‘Deal Breaker’
I love Scalextric so much I want to take it behind a middle school and get it pregnant.
I wish I would be there one day. Up Barca. May the Jesus we serve do us favour in our lives both on the pitch and otherwise. Messi why with a bikini, while we see u as a good christian?
Please leave messi alone.He has a right to leave as he chooses.
I love Barca and wish all the guys great!
