The Spanish club Real Madrid is facing a new challenge related to managing and utilizing its new Santiago Bernabéu stadium, following a series of previous issues associated with noise from concerts and the underground parking, according to the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo."

The current crisis revolves around the Bernabéu Market, the food facility inside the stadium that officially opened in November 2025 and includes more than 20 restaurants and companies specializing in providing food, both general and specialized. Real Madrid granted exploitation rights to a specific company, but this company has not yet adhered to the financial terms agreed upon, either with the club or with the twenty restaurant operators within the market.

The newspaper explained that the market management system is based on the company collecting revenue from each sale at the twenty locations, then distributing these funds between the restaurants and the club according to the agreed percentages. However, the amounts have not been distributed yet, leading to widespread dissatisfaction among the operators.

The report confirmed that the twenty restaurants are currently considering taking legal action against the operating company, as well as against Real Madrid secondarily, to protect their financial rights. This new issue is expected to spark significant debate within the club regarding the manner of exploiting the commercial facilities of the new Bernabéu.
