FC Barcelona issued a statement where he assures his fans ahead of the friendly scheduled for Wednesday, the 26th, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, making sure they play, and even encouraging them to attend the meeting. However, the club has so far not confirmed whether planned training sessions will continue as normal.
The statement reads as follows: “FC Barcelona wants to encourage to their fans to attend and enjoy the game we will play this coming Wednesday against Arsenal at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Both teams are in contact is close and we share full confidence that our match will go according to plan.”
the friendly between Barcelona and Juventus which was supposed to be played this Saturday in Santa Clara, at Levi’s Stadium, was canceled due to an outbreak of viral gastroenteritis in the Barcelona expedition, which affects a good number of players, around eight according to some sources.
the italian set took the opportunity to exercise at the stadium during game time. Barcelona, on the other hand, have not yet reported any changes to the training plan.
Club sources have unofficially explained that uninfected players will hold a session this Saturday without leaving the hotel gym. At the moment, it’s disturbingly quiet about the next few days’ work sessions, though from the club ensures that the next gamefour days after the one suspended, will be played with total normality.
Vital no more suspension
As for Barcelona, forizes now, there is already an economic loss in a tour that is called to break the absolute record for revenue in a tour, with around 15 million expected according to a series of variables. With these variables, and despite the fact that insurance will allow for minor damage, the box office will not be fulfilledat least in the first game, so the record of 14 million, from the 2017 US tour, will not be broken. Last season is coming up and currently a puncture against Juve could mean around 2 million losses. Against Arsenal it was important do not repeat the suspension. There are days left to assume that the game will be held, but Barça must be clear about the training schedule, otherwise it is easy to make speculations.
Anyway, the real stick will do if the Dallas Classic has to be suspended, next Saturday, the 29th. That would be disastrous for the tour’s revenue.
