Copa del Rey final to be held next season

The Copa del Rey final is set to be held next season.

Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao were due to meet, but Sport says there's now an agreement to postpone the clash until next season.

It's suggested the decision was made as both clubs were reluctant to play the final in front of an empty stadium.

Therefore, in a three-way agreement between the Higher Sports Council, the Federation and LaLiga, the matter was discussed and it was decided that next season the final would be played.

The date is not yet defined and everything is pending on events, although it has been established that the final would have to be a week before the end of the next edition of the Copa del Rey.
