Javier Tebas's League has given him to Barcelona A 'lever' that will surely be millionaire with the dates of the Liga 2025/2026 calendar. The employer, in an act that carried out the Royal Spanish Football Federation In San Juan de la Nava last Tuesday, the Classic In the Camp Nou for the second round when this year, in theory, it played the other way around. This help comes from pearls to Barça to be able to play this great game with a greater capacity than he would have in the first round.
The newspaper library is always useful. And wonderful. During the last four seasons, the Liga It has been rotating the order of Classics In each campaign. If a year was played in the Bernabéu The first round game, the following year played in Madrid the second round. Between seasons 18/19 and 21/22 the order was maintained with the first classic of the season in Barcelona and the second in the capital of Spain. But from 2022 the rotations began.
In campaign 22/23, the Real Madrid played at home in the Bernabéu he Classic of the first round and the Barcelona He did it in the second round of the championship. A year later, on 23/24, the papers changed. He Classic From the first round it was in the city and that of the second in Madrid. The rotations came again last year (season 24/25) with the first classic at Bernabéu and the second in Montjuic.
After these precedents, this year he played, or so he said logic and coherence, play the first Classic of the season in Barcelona And the second in the Bernabéu. But it is not so. The league calendar has maintained the order last year. The first classic will be played at Bernabéu on October 25 on day 10 of the championship. And the second will be in Barcelona on May 9 on day 35. Already in the new Camp Nou.
Without a doubt, this programming of the Classics In the league calendar it favors Barcelona. The employer of Javier Tebas He has given him an unexpected lever that the Barca club will take advantage of. The entity that chairs Joan Laporta will play again in the Camp Nou In Liga on September 14, before, it will do so in August with the Joan Gamper dispute, with a capacity limited to 60,000 spectators.
If the first Classic against him Real Madrid In the new Camp Nou Disputed in the first round, it would be played only one month after the team's return to its stadium. The capacity would be 60,000 spectators and the income by box office of the Barcelona They would not be very buoyant.
On the other hand, now, the Barcelona aims to increase its capacity in the Camp Nou facing May 9, 2026 and adding many more income from those expected to the Real Madrid. A lever that LapTa takes thanks to the League of Javier Tebas.
