Javier Tebas fails again in his attempt to win a match in his League – in this case, the Barcelona-Atletico Madrid December 21 – outside Spain. There will be no match in Miami (United States), exactly as the president of the League had imagined and for which he had been fighting for some time. There is no official confirmation, but Barcelona have already done so a movement which shows that this match will be played where it belongs, in the Montjuic Olympic Games. Thus, Tebas finds himself (for the moment) without realizing his dream and with him, Laporta also finds himself without the economic supplement that this gave him.
Concretely, Barça has already put tickets on sale for this duel against Atlético de Madrid, which is still It has no official datebut it will be either December 21 or December 22, a duel corresponding to the 18th day of the League, the last official match of the two teams in 2024.
Thus, on its official website, Barcelona already selling tickets for the meeting against Atlético, but for the moment reserved for members. There are “Basic”, “Basic Plus” and “VIP Premium” options. All they are for salewhich means that Barcelona sells their supporters tickets for a match at Montjuic. It would make no sense that if this League match was played in Miami, Barcelona would take tickets to attend the duel in Montjuic.
Javier Tebas’ League has been working for a long time so that the next Barcelona-Atlético de Madrid will be played in the United States. Thebes he revived his old dream that a match of their League is played on North American territory, something they did not achieve with a Girona-Barcelona match in 2019. They will not achieve it now either. And I was already dreaming of it, by placing the Hard Rock Stadiumheadquarters of the next World Cup in 2026 and ground where the final of the Copa América was played this summer, as a stadium for this Barcelona-Atlético de Madrid which will be played.
Laporta loses a good pinch of money
Beyond the fact that Tebas will not yet achieve his goal of playing a championship match outside of Spain, this also represents a economic blow for Barcelona. Joan Laporta put himself in the hands of Tebas on this file when he saw that he was going to get a good financial pinch from it. It was estimated that what they were going to take was five million eurosmoney that is now lost and which has been very good for Barça, and even more so with the losses linked to not returning to the Camp Nou.
It turns out that on December 22, 2023, Barcelona was already playing a friendly match in the United States, more precisely in Dallas. And now, a year later, he wanted to repeat with the help of Javier Tebas on the same date in North American territory, but this time sponsored by the League, with a financial injection thanks to the work and grace of Tebas , who has wanted Barça in the United States for years.
In short, Tebas fails – once again – in his attempt to organize a league match outside of Spain and Laporta finds himself without money, which was great for him considering the deteriorated economic situation he finds himself in. found for years.
