Real Madrid and Barcelona may be prohibited from referring to their games as "El Clasico" matches.



In a significant development, Real Madrid and Barcelona have been prohibited from utilizing the iconic term 'El Clasico' to describe their highly anticipated fixtures. According to Relevo, a legal ruling has imposed restrictions on both LaLiga powerhouses, preventing them from promoting their matches against each other using the cherished term.

The decision was made by the Patent and Trademark Office in Spain, which cited concerns about potential confusion between the use of the term by Real Madrid and Barcelona and its existing association with La Liga. LaLiga has long referred to this match as "El Clasico," but the office argued that the term's widespread recognition made it unsuitable for trademarking by the two clubs.

Forbes has also reported on this matter, highlighting the office's contention that trademarking 'El Clasico' by either club would create an undue association with La Liga's well-established trademark, thereby justifying the denial of their trademark applications.

This recent ruling signifies a significant change for the clubs, as they will now need to find alternative ways to promote and describe their highly anticipated encounters.
