The first leg of the Europa League round of 32 between Real and Manchester United that Anoeta was to host the next Thursday 18th this month will finally be played at the Juventus stadium in Turin. In the absence of the approval of the Italian government, which seems that it will not oppose any impediment, UEFA and the txuri-urdin club have reached a agreement for the Turin countryside to be the stage of the first leg, while the second leg will take place in Manchester a week later, on Thursday 25.
“As of today, Real has closed the agreement with UEFA and Juventus FC to be able to play in Turin the first leg of the round of 32 against Manchester United,” sources from the realistic entity point out. “Despite working so that the match could be played at the Reale Arena, the prohibition of entry into Spain of flights from the United Kingdom until February 16 and the uncertainty that this ban could be extended over time has led to the decision to play the match in a different setting, “they add.
Juventus’ was one of the fields proposed by UEFA to host matches for teams from other countries forced to play outside their borders, and will almost certainly be the venue for a match in which the txuri-urdin team has high hopes. The consent of the Italian government is still missing for the match to be played on transalpine soil, but everything indicates that it will do so in the next few hours.
In any case, La Real continues to work in other venues in case of not having the approval of the Italian government.
