Pep Guardiola calls on fans to fill Nou Camp for Palestine match

Football legend and Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has asked fans to make sure to pack the Barcelona Nou Camp stadium next Tuesday, 18 November, for a special Palestine–Catalunya charity match:

Pep Guardiola has a record of solidarity with the Palestinian people against Israel’s genocide, land theft and crimes against humanity, calling last month for a mass march against the genocide and using a speech in June to warn against silence and complicity. His support highlights how football culture can challenge political silence and mobilise public solidarity.

All ticket revenue from next week’s match will go toward humanitarian aid and community projects in Palestine.

Tickets are available here.
