América consider moving home games away from Ciudad de los Deportes | OneFootball

The Sports City Stadium became the home of Club América because the Azteca Stadium went under renovation for the 2026 World Cup.

Initially, the stadium was shared with Atlante and Cruz Azul, but over time, both clubs left the building to go elsewhere and with that, the eagles became the only team to play as a home team in that stadium and also took the opportunity to paint it with Americanist colors.

But not everything has been perfect, at first there were problems with the stadium owner as he did not provide the required maintenance and when they solved that, the problems were now with the mayor of the Benito Juárez delegation.

In November of last year, said authority decided to close the building because there was a match in the stadium at the same time there was an event in the bullring, something that is prohibited.

This situation caused América to have to move for a match to Puebla, to face Pachuca in a duel they ended up winning 2-1.

Now they have closed the stadium again and while this time it has not been closed, they will not be able to bring in fans and again it was due to a unilateral decision by the mayor of the Benito Juárez delegation.

América could change the venue for their upcoming matches.

These situations have caused Club América to no longer feel comfortable playing in that stadium, as contact with the authorities is nil, causing them not even to have the right of reply to the decisions made by the competent authority.

The board is already analyzing this situation and if everything remains the same, they would be looking for a new home for the remainder of the tournament and the Clausura 2026. The good news is that by the Apertura 2026 they will be able to be back at the Azteca Stadium.
