The NFL is headed to Spain in 2025 for the first regular-season game ever in that country.

The league announced at the site of the Super Bowl that its international slate of games for the 2025 season will feature a game at Real Madrid’s iconic Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.

“We could not be more excited to bring the best of the NFL, the best of our teams and star players to the more than 13 million passionate fans in Spain and partner with one of the greatest global soccer clubs in Real Madrid in a truly world-class and innovative stadium,” said Peter O’Reilly, the NFL’s head of international affairs.

The teams that will play in that game will be announced at a later date, but O’Reilly said the host team would likely be from the AFC because teams in that conference will have an extra home game that season.

“There’s not a lack of interest for teams playing in Madrid with our partner Real Madrid,” O’Reilly said.

O’Reilly said plenty of teams have already expressed interest. Count Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce among those who would jump at the opportunity after playing in Germany this year, as well as London and Mexico City in the past.

“That would be epic,” Kelce said. “It would be a once in a lifetime opportunity. I’m going to go talk to (owner) Clark Hunt right now and get that bid in. Any chance we get to go out of the States and play internationally, you would be silly not to jump at that opportunity.

The fan bases are every bit as electric if not more outside of the United States. If the Chiefs get out there to Spain, we’ll make sure to have some fun.”

The NFL has been expanding its international presence in recent years, with owners voting in December to authorize the league to host eight games internationally each season.

“I would like to express our deepest gratitude to you and to let you know that it is a great honor for Real Madrid to host this international event with the NFL over the next few years in our stadium,” said Emilio Butragueño, Madrid’s director of institutional relations. “For us, you are a model of management and a great traveling companion with whom to share our dreams.”

In the 2024 season, the NFL will have three games in London — including a home game for the Jacksonville Jaguars — along with one in Germany and the first game ever in Brazil.

The NFL has also hosted several games in Mexico City and plans to return there in 2026 following the World Cup that year after renovations are finished at Azteca Stadium.

O’Reilly said the NFL is looking at other potential countries to host a game in the future, including France.
