Real Madrid Opposes Barcelona vs Villarreal Match in Miami
Thursday 09-10-2025
The Athletic reported that Real Madrid firmly opposes the idea of holding La Liga matches outside of Spanish territory, following the approval to hold the Villarreal vs Barcelona match in Miami.

The report added that this strict stance from the royal club intensifies the tension and disagreement between Real Madrid's management and La Liga president Javier Tebas, amid differing views on how to develop and market the league globally.

Despite the ongoing controversy, Real Madrid enjoys the support of the Spanish Sports Council, a government body, which gives it additional strength in facing the league regarding this contentious issue.

UEFA has decided to hold the Barcelona vs Villarreal match in Miami, but emphasized that this decision is exceptional, stressing the importance of holding local league matches within the country.

The match between Barcelona and Villarreal will take place on December 20th, as part of the 17th round of La Liga.
