News comes after Spanish soccer’s curtain raiser was held in Morocco. Getty Images The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) is weighing up offers from Qatar, China and the US to host the next edition of the Spanish Super Cup, according to Cadena COPE’s El Partizado radio program. The US proposal to stage Spanish soccer’s curtain-raising fixture, which features the previous season’s winners of La Liga and the Copa del Rey, is being fronted by entertainment company Relevent Sports, which is also behind the controversial plans to stage La Liga games in North America as part of a 15-year agreement. Relevent reportedly offered to stage the Super Cup in the US for the next five years, but El Partizado said that the proposal was promptly rejected by RFEF president Luis Rubiales. Rubiales is in favour of taking the Super Cup outside of Spain, but the RFEF has refused to give the green light to La Liga to stage a fixture between Girona and Barcelona in the US this season. Qatar and China are thought to be leading the race to host the game having made the most attractive financial offers to the RFEF. This year’s Super Cup was also staged outside of Spain, with Barcelona beating Sevilla 2-1 in Tangier, Morocco.
