""Tuesday was [supposed to be] the meeting with Tebas and the clubs," Aganzo said. "We wanted some transparency and respect towards the players. "More than just taking a game to another country, we wanted to know if the collective bargaining agreement was being fulfilled, the details surrounding the journey, the working conditions ... we want information from LaLiga. "If it's as special as LaLiga say, why is no other club celebrating it other than Barcelona and Villarreal? I have not seen any statements celebrating it."
""I can't guarantee it will go ahead. It's the players that play these games. Football is improving, but the conditions have to as well. We have to protect the players.""
""don't want to ruin everything.""
The Spanish Footballers' Association (AFE) opposes moving the Villarreal–Barcelona match to Miami, citing insufficient information, potential breaches of the collective bargaining agreement, and concerns about travel and working conditions. AFE requested an urgent meeting with LaLiga, club captains, Barcelona and Villarreal but could not schedule everyone. AFE warned it cannot guarantee player support for the fixture and emphasized the need to protect players. LaLiga said it could not attend the original meeting but proposed three alternative dates, which AFE said came too late given ticket sales. AFE has discussed possible actions with political parties while seeking to avoid disruption.
