Forward thinking Spanish property investors may find they have an opportunity to score with a new theme park based on La Liga football team Real Madrid.

Club president Florentino Perez is reportedly considering a £135 million investment in a Disney-style theme park based on one of the world’s most famous clubs, which could provide an opportunity for people seeking Spanish property to let as holiday accommodation.

Andreas Veilstrup Andersen, executive director at the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions, commented: "Theme and amusement parks are very strong drivers of tourism – this could also very well be the case with the Real Madrid Park.

"If you include off-site spending like transportation and accommodation et cetera, the total economic impact in Europe is approximately 12 billion euros [£10.9 billion]."

Mr Anderson adds that theme and amusement parks are often considered to be relatively recession-proof, given their enduring family appeal.

If the theme park goes ahead, Spanish property in the region of the football funhouse could prove a comparably safe investment for buyers wary of recent economic conditions.
