President meeting back in 2016

In August 2016, Daniel Angelici was at Camp Nou with Josep Maria Bartomeu and explained on his Facebook account that they had received the invitation to participate in the tournament.

August 31, 2016: Today, I met the President of FC Barcelona, ​​Josep Maria Bartomeu, at the headquarters of the Catalan club. There we made progress in strengthening the relations of both clubs with technical collaboration agreements and sports activities together. We also continued to talk so that BOCA could participate in one of the next editions of the Joan Gamper Cup to face Barça and organise a match with the legends of both clubs.

A few months ago, Miguel Rico explained had spoken with the Spanish newspaper MundoDeportivo. Boca Juniors would be a serious contender for being the rival of FC Barcelona for the next edition of the Joan Gamper Trophy, in August 2018 at Camp Nou.

The president of the Argentine club confirmed on February 11 that his club will be in Barcelona next August. “Our club will travel to Spain in August to face FC Barcelona,” said Daniel Angelici at the “Boca de Selección”. He also explained that it was more a question of prestige than of money.

Sixth appearance at the Gamper for Boca Junior

Boca Junior is the Argentine team with most appearances at the Gamper. They already played the friendly tournament in 1967, 1977, 1984, 2003 and 2008.

Thus, ten years later, Boca Juniors will be again opposed to FC Barcelona at the 2018 Gamper.

Boca Junior is currently the leader of the Argentine league and his current coach is Guillermo Barros Schelotto.

The last guest of the Joan Gamper Trophy was the Brazilian club Chapecoense. The Catalan club wanted to pay homage to the club following the tragic plane crash suffered a season before.
