The La Liga meeting between Villarreal and FC Barcelona will be played in Miami. La Liga made the news official this Wednesday. And we can say that this does not please Frenkie de Jong at all, who did not hesitate to say it during a press conference organized with the Netherlands. “I don’t like us going there and I don’t agree. It's not just for competition. I don’t like it and I don’t think it’s good for the players.”
He added: “for clubs, it’s about developing their brand internationally. That's probably the point. I understand this position, but I would not accept it and I do not share it. We always complain about the match schedule and excessive travel. The clubs will be paid for this, but I do not agree to play a championship match in Miami. I understand that other clubs do not agree. Barça may not like it too much but we cannot blame the player after the arguments he has put forward.
