Why are LaLiga considering to postpone Valencia vs Real Madrid match?

Los Blancos vs Los Ches could be moved to a different date after a storm hit the Valencia province.

Following devastating flooding in the Spanish city, Valencia’s LaLiga match against Real Madrid on Saturday could be postponed, according to sources.

Valencia was hit by flash floods on Tuesday, and it has been revealed that the DANA tragedy has claimed the lives of over 50 people.

The Copa del Rey match between Valencia and Parla Escuela was supposed to take place tonight, but it has been postponed.

According to Spanish publication Relevo, there is a “real possibility” that the match against Carlo Ancelotti’s Madrid this weekend could also be postponed.

The game on Saturday might be moved to a later date because of the ongoing situation. Carlos Mazon, the president of the Valencian administration, is scheduled to announce a period of formal mourning in the area after the floods are finished. Meanwhile, the reports suggest that there has been no damage done to Valencia’s home, the Mestalla.
