Barcelona planning money-spinning friendly in the United States in December

Barcelona are reportedly planning to play a friendly in the United States in December as a way to bring in some more cash.

The Catalans are hoping to head off across the Atlantic and play an extra friendly before Christmas, according to Cadena Ser.

Xavi has approved the plans, despite concerns of too many minutes for his players, because he’s all too aware of the need to generate income to help the club’s financial situation.

Barcelona have been trying to find a gap in the schedule and it seems there might be some wiggle room in December.
