Real Madrid Denied Extra Rest, Must Begin La Liga Season As Scheduled

By IANS News August 01, 2025 • 12:34 PM View: 72

Club World Cup: A Spanish football federation judge has rejected Real Madrid's request to delay their opening match of the 2025-26 La Liga season, citing no violation of the established rest period rules.

The club had hoped to push back their scheduled game against Osasuna at the Santiago Bernabeu on August 19 (local time), arguing insufficient recovery and preparation time following their participation in the Club World Cup.

Madrid’s campaign at the international tournament ended on July 9, when they suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the semifinal at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.
