Craig Burley and Mark Donaldson of ESPN FC discuss the news, and whether it’s a good idea.

I hope they strike.

Daddy Long Schlong says:

This is a massive fuck you to fans of the smaller teams with season tickets. They wait all season to play barca or madrid and now they wont be able to go

Suman Mondal says:

This is a horrible idea. Tebas is a fucking businessman who doesn't know a single thing about football. Football is more superior than money. And if Tebas is planning to get some profit by playing in USA then it's a wrong idea. Because in USA, people do only know about FCB, RMA and I think camp nou and Barnabeu is almost always full even in Spain. But what about small teams ?? In their matches there won't be any supporters. This is fucking irrational, unrelevent and also unfair.

STOP THIS NONSENSE

Stephanie Salgado says:

This is lowkey lit because it’s a dream to see a Barça game ???

Ship says:

Pero que mierda es esta?

Xavier Smith says:

I understand that the U.S. is a very lucrative market, but this makes no sense for the Home-Away system. Plus these teams already make a lot of money in Spain. But I agree with Spanish Club Academies expanding into the U.S. to find young talent and increase general interest in the sport.

They gonna show Real Madrid vs Barcelona in the USA

Papa Smurf says:

It's a bad idea. If they bring Barca, Real, or Athletico over here against any other club it's just gonna be like another home game for those 3 clubs. It's not gonna benefit other La Liga clubs unless they get most of the money from the game which I know they won't.

MontrealMUFC says:

Before they come to North America, shoud La Liga not focus on filling their stadiums instead? Or are Spaniards now too poor to afford football tickets out of a sudden? As far as everyone is concerned, fillings the stands at home is always more important than playing abroad.

Brandon Johnson says:

NFL does it.
