Last update 16 November, 2012 by Julio Muñoz

It was confirmed expectations and Valencia CF can not resume the work of the new stadium after the breakdown of the agreement between Bankia and Aedifica, which gave the club liquidity sufficient to meet this project.

The protocol of intent, signed in December 2011, contemplated that Bankia, through Newcoval, stay on property the plot occupied by the current Mestalla, the floor the sports city of Paterna, and the tertiary Avenue Courts.

In return, the bank would have to release debt 240 million that the club and grant a loan worth 170 million euros to Newcoval to, as the new promoter of the works of the Coliseum Avenida de las Cortes, could finish the works.

To comply with this part of the deal, Bankia imposed three conditions. First of all, Valencia was to get the urban redevelopment of the plot Aragon Avenue; en segundo, requalification of the Ciudad Deportiva de Paterna; y en tercero, give approval for hotel use in the tertiary ground.

The three points have been resolved favorably to Valencia, according to sources at the club, although Bankia has alleged compliance with these requirements to withdraw from the operation.
