The schedule has dealt Madrid a blow even before the new La Liga season kicks off.
Details: According to The Athletic, Real Madrid's opening match of the new La Liga season against Real Sociedad will be postponed.
The reason? Several Madrid players are still competing in the late stages of the World Cup. As a result, Real Madrid won’t be able to field their best lineup for the season opener.
For La Liga, this could become the first major calendar shake-up before the campaign even begins. Now, Madrid fans will have to wait for a new date for the clash with Real Sociedad.
Reminder: Manchester United could sign Real Madrid's superstar.
