""The Spanish football federation (RFEF) is set to discuss taking steps toward holding a LaLiga game between Villarreal and Barcelona in Miami on December 20, 2025.""
""LaLiga has long aimed to play a competitive match in the United States, reflecting a broader intention to globalize the brand of Spanish football.""
The RFEF's board will review a proposal to hold the Villarreal vs. Barcelona match in Miami on December 20, 2025. LaLiga aims to play competitive matches in the U.S., with a previous attempt in 2018 failing due to opposition from the RFEF and FIFA. However, FIFA has since lifted its opposition following a lawsuit settlement with Relevant Sports Group. Approval from UEFA, Concacaf, RFEF, and USSF is necessary for the match to take place, marking a new phase in LaLiga's international plans.
