Real Madrid are hopeful they can host Liverpool in the Spanish capital for their Champions League quarter final next month.
The Spanish government’s travel ban on UK arrivals is due to expire on 30 March – just seven days before the first leg of tie set to be staged on 6 April.
As a result, Real will look to play the fixture at their Alfredo Di Stefano stadium – traditionally the home of the club’s Castilla side – as the Santiago Bernabeu will still be under construction.
The Spanish government’s travel ban had previously seen Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad play their ‘home’ matches against Chelsea and Manchester United outside the country.
