According to Catalonia’s Sport newspaper, the country is an option to “host” the club. Details of the invitation have not been disclosed.
Barcelona could arrive in Brazil in 2026 for a pre-season tour. According to information from newspaper Sport, the country is seen as one of the alternatives being considered by Catalan clubs to host matches and preparations before the official start of the European season.
Details of the proposal have not yet been revealed, but the possibility has sparked great anticipation among Brazilian fans. Barça’s historic relationship with national football is marked by idols who wear the maroon shirt, such as Romário, Ronaldinho Gaucho and Neymar. Currently, striker Rafinha maintains this connection as one of the team’s main players.
But Brazil is not alone in the conflict. Japan and the United States have also proposed hosting the club’s preseason games. The Board will carefully evaluate each option, taking into account not only the potential for fan engagement, but also logistical and strategic factors.
In this regard, Brazil faces the challenge of long travel and physical fatigue, which can affect the players. The priority of Barcelona’s technical committee is to reduce the impact of migration as much as possible, so Asians and North Americans will be strong competitors in the race.
Nevertheless, Brazilians’ emotional appeal and passion for soccer could give the country an advantage. If this option is approved, a visit to Barcelona in 2026 will not only be a sporting spectacle, but also a reunion with the club and its always enthusiastic fan base.
