Barcelona is actively working to organize a friendly match in Peru this December as a lucrative alternative after the cancellation of their planned Miami fixture against Villarreal. The Miami game, scheduled for December 20, was canceled due to logistical and political issues, resulting in an estimated loss of €5-6 million ($5.9-7 million). In response, Barcelona is negotiating a friendly in Peru, which could generate between €7-8 million ($8.2-9.3 million), helping to recover financial setbacks. The club has expressed strong interest in this proposal, with President Joan Laporta emphasizing the financial importance amid reduced revenue streams this season. The proposed match would take place after their last La Liga game against Villarreal and before the league’s Christmas break, around December 22. Barcelona is coordinating with La Liga and the Spanish Footballers’ Association to ensure scheduling aligns with players’ rest requirements. The move aims to strengthen Barcelona’s global brand, especially in Latin America, and to mitigate the impact of the Miami fixture cancellation, which was part of La Liga’s broader internationalization strategy. The Peru friendly would be Barcelona’s first match in the country, expected to draw significant local interest and television coverage, and is part of the club’s efforts to maintain financial stability and expand its global footprint despite challenges within Spanish football’s international projects.
