Barcelona’s controversial La Liga match against Villarreal in Miami needs to be postponed, according to the organisers.
The fixture had been scheduled to go ahead in the United States on December 20 after
being given the green light by La Liga and UEFA.
However, it’s now been thrown into doubt as the organisers say there is not enough time to organise the match.
“Relevent has informed LALIGA of the need to postpone the planned match between Villarreal CF and FC Barcelona in Miami on December 20,” read a statement.
“Given the current uncertainty in Spain, there is insufficient time to properly execute an event of this scale. It would also be irresponsible to begin selling tickets without a confirmed match in place.”
The game has already attracted plenty of controversy, due to the decision to take the game overseas, and it’s not clear now when or where it will go ahead.
What a mess.
