The origins of the rich history, passion and rivalry between these two clubs dates back decades & this event will be a celebration of that.” The greats of yesteryear will walk out once more to display their timeless talents and rekindle the intense rivalry that has captivated millions of fans over time,” a statement from the organizers said.
The Doha game will be the third between both sides. Barcelona won the first game in 2017, 3-2, with Real Madrid claiming a 3-2 win of his own in 2021.
Barca Legends is a programme created in 2016 and direct responsibility falls to the club. The plan is to unite previous players in a revolving roster to help grow Barca’s international presence.
