Estadio Azteca (Mexico City Stadium) was undoubtedly the best venue at this World Cup, hosting five Mexico matches and one Colombia match.

Both Mexicans and foreigners were delighted with the historic stadium, and many have even wondered why the final was not awarded to the iconic venue.

But there is a strong possibility that another major competition could be held at Club América’s stadium.

Could the Club World Cup be played in Mexico?

Today, Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, revealed that they are considering hosting the 2029 Club World Cup, noting that it is a 32-club tournament, very much in the style of the World Cup.

Nothing has been confirmed yet, and she stated that it will depend on whether it is economically beneficial for the country, so they will first have to analyze the situation.

But if they do become hosts, it is a fact that Estadio Azteca would be chosen to stage the tournament’s opening match and final, which would be simply spectacular.

In addition, this could allow América to be invited to the tournament, keeping in mind that for now they have not been able to secure their spot, since to do so they need to win the Concacaf Champions Cup.
