La Liga, along with Atletico Madrid and Villarreal have made a 'formal request' to the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) for permission to hold the December clash between the two clubs in Miami.
The proposal would see the teams line up for the first ever La Liga game played outside of the country, in Miami's Hard Rock Stadium (home of the Miami Dolphins) at 22:00 CET (16:00 local time) on Friday 6th December - which is a public holiday in Spain.
This is not the first time La Liga have tried to arrange a foreign La Liga game, with an attempt to bring the Barcelona vs Girona fixture to Miami last season falling apart after opposition from the RFEF, FIFA and UEFA.
