Like last year, the FC Barcelona will end its season with a friendly match. After Sydney last year, where the Catalans faced a selection of the best players in the Australian league, Barça will travel to Tokyo to challenge Vissel Kobe on June 6.
In front of 80,000 spectators, the Blaugrana will play once morest the club of Andrés Iniesta and Sergi Samper. The Club’s main sponsor, Spotify, will accompany the Club in Japan.
Barca’s expedition will travel to Japan directly from Vigo once the last league game once morest Celta is over and return to Barcelona straight following the Vissel encounter. The departure date for Asia hasn’t been set yet, as it will depend on when La Liga schedule the last match, depending on its importance.
The game once morest Vissel Kobe will mean the return of FC Barcelona’s first team to Japan following almost four years. The last visit to this country took place during the 2019 pre-season preparation and on this occasion the team then coached by Ernesto Valverde had already played once morest Vissel Kobe. It was then Andrés Iniesta’s first match once morest his former team.
Thus, next month’s match will be another opportunity for the Spanish legend and Sergi Samper, also a former Barça player, to meet on the pitch once morest their former partners. Vissel Kobe are currently leaders in the J-league, ahead of defending champions Yokohama Marinos.
Tickets will go on sale May 16 through Rakuten Tickets in Japan.
