The club has been planning to build a new stadium for several years, and in 2020, they finally broke ground on their new home, which is expected to be completed by 2023.

The new stadium, which will be called the "Wanda Metropolitano Stadium" (named after the club's current sponsor, Wanda Group), will have a seating capacity of approximately 68,000 spectators. It will be built on a 35-hectare site in the southeastern part of Madrid, near the Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport.

Here are some key features of the new stadium:
