Around 60 permanent seasonal Barcelona workers are planning a three-day strike over pay, staffing levels, and alleged contractual issues. The planned walkout is scheduled to begin at midnight on October 23 and run until 6am on October 26, directly coinciding with the El Clasico match against Real Madrid at Spotify Camp Nou on October 25.
The industrial action also threatens services across the Johan Cruyff Stadium, Palau Blaugrana, and the Joan Gamper Training Centre. Workers are demanding a pay raise and a 50 percent increase in staffing levels, while Barcelona officials insist the high-profile fixture will go ahead as scheduled with sufficient resources.
