Marbella-Atlético de Madrid Copa game to be played at La Rosaleda
The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has authorized that the match between Marbella and Atlético de Madrid of the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey will be played at La Rosaleda on January 4, 2025.
The reason for the change of venue is that Marbella plays its official matches at the Banús Football Center, a provisional venue with insufficient capacity for the match.
The mayor of La Línea de la Concepción offered the Ciudad de la Línea, but Marbella opted for La Rosaleda, which will be one of the venues for the 2030 World Cup and is used by Málaga CF. The match has generated interest on the Costa del Sol and a good turnout is expected due to Atlético’s popularity in Andalusia.
