How much will Barcelona earn by playing LaLiga game against Villarreal in USA?

It could be the first LaLiga game to be played in the USA.

Barcelona are in for a great financial profit if they play their LaLiga game against Villarreal in the USA in December. LaLiga winners Barca will receive a good sum for their historic matchup with The Yellow Submarine.

Naturally, the topic of Barca and Villarreal’s first scheduled encounter of the new season has taken centre stage in Spanish news outlets in recent days.

This is in light of the knowledge that a deal to hold the match in the United States is now almost essentially finalised. The trip, which is scheduled for December, is anticipated to take place at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

A LaLiga official match would be played for the first time outside of Spain, which is a historic development for the league.

After preparations to stage the event in the United States were approved by the Spanish football association, Villarreal’s LaLiga match versus Barcelona in December may become the first European league match to be played outside.

The event could now be moved to Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium, which will host seven games at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, after the RFEF requests approval from FIFA and UEFA.

Fan organisations for Barca and Villarreal have joined forces with the Spanish Football Supporters’ Association (FASFE) to voice their “absolute, total and firm opposition” to the plans.

Additionally, as previously mentioned, both teams stand to gain financially from their involvement. According to a report from the trustworthy RAC1:

“Barca will receive five or six million euros in US against Villarreal.”

In an effort to make up for the lost matchday profits at La Ceràmica, the latter will receive even more generous compensation.
