The NFL will play its first-ever game in Spain during the 2025 season and announced the designated home team for that competition on Friday.
The Dolphins will be in Madrid for the match, which will be played at the Bernabéu stadium in Madrid. The stadium is the home of the famous Real Madrid football club, but other details like the match date and the Dolphins’ opponents will be announced later.
“We are thrilled to play the inaugural NFL game in Spain, a country rich in history, tradition and passion and home to a vibrant Dolphins fan base,” Dolphins CEO Tom Garfinkel said in a press release. “There is a hunger for football in this market and we are proud to join the NFL in growing the game internationally while engaging with old and new fans.” With the unique synergy between Miami and Madrid, we believe this is just the beginning for us in this incredible region and we look forward to bringing the enthusiasm and community of Dolphins football to Spain in 2025 and beyond . »
The NFL will play five games in Europe during the 2025 season. The Jaguars, Jets and Browns will be the “home” teams in London while the Colts will be the designated hosts of the league’s first game in Berlin.
