Stamford, Connecticut. Titan Sports, Real Madrid and FC Barcelona have issued joint statements confirming that the World famous Barcelona and Real Madrid franchises will be coming to the XFL next season bringing with them not only a wealth of talented player and history but also one of the greatest rivalries in sports.

Rumors are already circulating that the internal crisis at Chelsea may prompt Zinedine Zidane to jump back to his old club while a stunning "footballing orgasm" as Mr McMahon put it, could be on the cards at Barcelona under manager Frank Rijkarrd who are expected to name Diego Maradona as Captain, acquire Arsenal Captain Thierry Henry and retain the services of Ronaldinho.
