América squad named for the 2026 Concachampions | OneFootball

Next week, the Concacaf Champions Cup 2026 will kick off with the match between Club América and Olimpia of Honduras in the first round.

The Águilas will be looking to break their 10-year streak without lifting this trophy, the last time being in the 2016 Concachampions when they defeated Tigres, thus achieving back-to-back tournament championships.

The team will face an interesting path to the final against some strong teams, as they were placed in the same bracket as Philadelphia Union and even Inter Miami, the current MLS champion, which features Lionel Messi on its roster.

But as always, first things first, and their current opponent is Olimpia of Honduras, a rivalry that has developed over the years in previous editions of the Concachampions, with victories for both sides.

The squad called up for the tie against Olimpia of Honduras.

The coaching staff registered 27 players for this first phase against Olimpia; the matches will be played on Tuesday the 3rd for the first leg and on February 11th for the return leg.

This is how the Concachampions 2026 brackets look:

What will the format be?

This edition will once again be played in a knockout format with five rounds: Round of 32, Round of 16, Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and Final.

The matches are played over two legs, while the final is a single match at the home of the higher-seeded team.
