Any sports fans visiting the Costa Blanca early this year may be in for a treat.

Spain will be playing Serbia in Benidorm in an early stage contest for The Davis Cup.

There are plans to erect a 16,000 seater stadium for the event, which will take place between March 6th and 8th.

Rafael Nadal should be playing.

I shall look out for where the tickets will be sold from, and post back if anyone is interested.

Unfortunately, the planned football friendly between Spain and England on February 11th. has been moved from the Mestalla stadium, home of CF Valencia, to the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuan in Sevilla.
