Reports indicate the match is scheduled for around 15 August against a local Moroccan club, with an official announcement anticipated in the coming days. The fixture will form part of Barcelona’s preparations for the 2026-27 season.
Barcelona first visited Tangier in 2012, when they defeated Raja Casablanca 8-0 in a pre-season friendly, with Lionel Messi scoring a hat-trick. They returned in 2018 for the Spanish Super Cup against Sevilla at the same venue.
The upcoming game will mark another high-profile appearance for the club in North Africa, where they enjoy significant support, and continues their history of engaging with Moroccan football.
