Javier Tebas blasts Real Madrid’s criticism of decision to play Barcelona game in Miami

It’s now been confirmed that the match will indeed take place in the United States in December, but Tebas says that Los Blancos are in no position to criticise.

“Madrid has nothing to say on this issue,” he told Cope. Tebas went to say he’d like to move a Madrid game but doesn’t think it will happen: “With the current leaders it’s impossible. It makes me sad because they don’t like everything LaLiga does. If it weren’t Miami it would be something else. We’re very bad and we don’t do anything right.”

Tebas also claimed that the clubs and players want to play overseas, despite Barcelona star [Frenkie de Jong having said he does not agree with the decision at all](/barcelona-la-liga/103237/its-unfair-frenkie-de-jong-unhappy-with-decision-to-play-villarreal-vs-barcelona-in-miami).

“A rather demagogic narrative is being constructed. It’s Villarreal’s own fans who want to come to Miami, it’s the clubs that want to come to Miami, it’s the players who want to come to Miami , and we’re talking about one match out of 380.”
