For several weeks, La Liga has been pushing hard to organize the meeting between FC Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid – on December 22 – in Miami (Florida). The Spanish league has already expressed its desire to UEFA and FIFA, who have not yet made a decision. If Javier Tebas ardently wishes to organize a meeting of his championship on the other side of the Atlantic, for reasons of influence, a man is even more motivated by this idea: Joan Laporta.

According to Marcathe president of FC Barcelona sees it as a perfect opportunity to highlight the image of his club. In addition, Laporta – aware that the United States is full of Barcelona supporters – wants to highlight his players less than two years before the next World Cup. Without forgetting that Nike and Aramark, partners of Barça, are American brands and that such a match organized in the United States could allow the Catalan club to attract other partners.
