LaLiga president Javier Tebas has insisted on moving the game between Villarreal and Atletico Madrid to the United States, but Real Madrid have expressed their opposition to his plan.
Los Blancos have sent a letter to the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) to ask for the game to take place in Spain.
As happened last year, when LaLiga had the same plans for Girona's match against Barcelona, Real Madrid insist that moving the game to a neutral stadium will benefit one of the two teams.
The president of the RFEF, Luis Rubiales, has already made clear that he is against moving the match, while FIFA president Gianni Infantino confirmed that the football governing body can't authorise a domestic league game to be played in another country.
As MARCA has learnt, FIFA haven't changed their mind and have ruled out giving the thumbs up for the game to be moved to the US.
LaLiga have scheduled the game for Friday, December 6 at 22:00 CET, which would mean that it would take place at 16:00 in the afternoon in Miami.
The court will determine next Thursday whether it is possible the fixture to take place overseas.

Evil man Tebas plan to destroy La Liga in guise of making money. If you play that game, it is a friendly NOT a league match, otherwise the whole teams in Spain should relocate and renamed US Liga. That man should be removed NOW.

Aren't the clubs thinking about the home fans? They must be waiting for a match like this and will be devastated if it's played overseas. LaLiga matches should be played in Spain

They should not move that game, because home fans will be angry and it just doesn’t feel right to play the game in another country.
