This meeting, which will take place at the Ajinomoto stadium in Tokyo at 2:00 p.m. (6:00 a.m. local time), will mark a special moment in the history of football, celebrating the career of one of the greatest Spanish players, indicates a press release from the Catalan club.
Recently retired Andrés Iniesta will return to the Barça jersey for the first time since 2018, after spending five seasons at Vissel Kobe, Japan. The event will be an opportunity to pay tribute to him in the country where he left an indelible mark, and where he chose to end his professional career.
The “Barça Legends” team, led by Albert Ferrer, will also count on the participation of historic figures like Xavi Hernández, Javier Mascherano, Rafa Márquez, as well as stars like Rivaldo, Bojan Krkic, and Ludovic Giuly, the press release specifies.
On the Real Madrid side, stars like Roberto Carlos, Iker Casillas, Luis Figo, and Julio Baptista will also be present to represent the “White Legends”.
This event, which follows a meeting scheduled in Doha (Qatar) on November 28, will allow supporters to relive the most memorable moments of the two clubs.
