Bartomeu misses Bernabéu
The Catalan club have confirmed that Bartomeu missed the traditional lunch with other directors of both clubs, and this was due to flu-like symptoms.
This has resulted in him not making the trip to the Spanish capital and so he will not take his usual seat in the VIP section along with Florentino Pérez. Fortunately for the president, there are numerous ways to follow the game without actually being there.
