Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour forces Real Madrid to ask to play their final game of the season a day earlier so popstar can have more time to set up at their iconic Bernabeu stadium

Spanish football giants Real Madrid have submitted a request to move their final match of the season so that Taylor Swift can have more time to prepare for her Eras Tour at their iconic Bernabéu stadium.

Madrid will play Real Betis at home on Sunday, May 24 and the pop star will perform at the Bernabéu on Thursday, May 30 as part of the European leg of his shows.

But according to The AthleticReal Madrid has requested that the match be moved forward one day to Saturday, May 23 to have more time to prepare for the concert.

Madrid is also trying to add another date for Swift to perform due to overwhelming interest in tickets from Spanish Swifties.

The pop sensation, who is dating NFL star Travis Kelce, will perform in several European cities this summer, including Paris, Stockholm, Lisbon, Liverpool, London and Amsterdam.

Moving the match should not affect the LaLiga title race too much, given that Real are already six points ahead of second-placed Girona and eight ahead of Barcelona.

Real Betis, on the other hand, are currently in seventh place in the league and are one point behind Real Sociedad in the fight for the last European spot in LaLiga.

Moving their game could also force Sociedad to move forward in the name of justice as teams fight to qualify for Europe.

Swift’s tour has also raised concerns for Lyon, due to the risk of her concert coinciding with the Ligue 1 relegation play-off.

Lyon currently sit just three points off the Ligue 1 relegation play-off spot.
