Covid-19: Real Madrid CF's Santiago Bernabéu available to store and distribute medical supplies

"Real Madrid CF (LaLiga Santander), in collaboration with the Spanish Supreme Sports Council (CSD), is making the club's stadium the Santiago Bernabéu (80,000 capacity) available to help in the fight against Covid-19," announced the club on 26/03/2020. The aim of the initiative is to use the venue as a storage facility for donations of medical supplies, according to the club, as the Coronavirus pandemic has already claimed more than 4,850 lives in Spain as of 27/03/2020.

"All of the stored supplies will be passed on to the Spanish health authorities, under the authority of the Spanish government, so that the resources, so necessary in the current health emergency situation, are employed in the best and most efficient manner," said Real Madrid, who's premises will be turned into a supply center.

"Real Madrid will provide a facility for organisations and businesses, particularly those belonging to the sports sector, to leave money or material donations that they wish to make to the Ministry of Health," added the Madrid club.
