Jaume Roures, a founding partner at MediaPro, announced on ‘Catalunya Radio’ the date and time of the first Real Madrid vs. Barcelona clash of the 2015-16 campaign.
MediaPro was named the agent for international broadcast rights for Spain’s first and second divisions in July. That meant the company would determine the date and kick-off time of the clash between two of the world’s most popular clubs.
The match between the two La Liga giants will take place on Sunday, April 23 at 2:45pm ET. beIN SPORTS and fuboTV will carry the match live in the United States.
