    Albanian media reports that Barcelona is in talks with the Albanian FA to play a friendly there in November. They might either play one of the top Albanian teams or a selection of their top domestic players. Barca will receive 2M euros.

    Call me crazy but I can see this happening.
    Albania will be celebrating their 100th anniversary of independence from the Ottoman Empire on November 28th.
    Coincidentally, Barcelona currently has nothing scheduled for that midweek. Wednesday November 28th would be the ideal date for FCB to help out with the celebrations.
    I personally prefer they take advantage of the rest period, but let's wait and see.
