Speaking to Spanish news agency EFE, Bolívar president Guido Loayza has said that the Bolivian club will travel to Spain at the end of the year to play a friendly game against Barcelona:
"We will travel to Europe in November or December when our league has ended. We don't yet know the exact date, it will depend on our calendar and the one of Barça. It will be very difficult for Barcelona, but we're very serious about this."
The news agency reports that Barcelona and Bolívar signed last year a three-year co-operation agreement, that includes among other things the possibility that Bolivian players can join Barcelona on loan and that Bolivian coaches can come to Spain to learn from Barcelona's technical staff. The deal also says that if Barcelona decides to travel to South America, the club will first visit Bolivia.
