In preparation for the application of Asturias as one of the host cities for the FIFA World Cup in 2030,Sordo Madaleno together with Orlegi Sports present the proposal for the refurbishment and remodelling of the El Molinón stadium, home of Real Sporting de Gijón. The new El Molinón Stadium will encompass approximately 8.8 hectares of public space connected to the city of Gijón, Asturias. Seating at the Stadium will be temporarily increased to accommodate 9,000 additional visitors to the 33,650 fixed seats during the World Cup.

As the oldest professional football field in Spain, the El Molinón site holds significant historical importance. Renovating and enhancing the existing sports infrastructure is the primary objective of the project. Sordo Madaleno’s approach focuses on creating a series of semi-open spaces with a welcoming façade that seamlessly integrates the new and old elements of the building with its cityscape, lending views over Isabel La Católica Park and San Lorenzo Beach.
