Atlético and their dream of the 2027 Champions League Final
Atlético de Madrid continues to work enthusiastically to make the Metropolitano the venue for the 2027 Champions League final. The club has submitted all the required documentation and remains respectful of the Baku bid, with whom they compete for this honor.
The final decision will be made at the UEFA Congress in Belgrade, and will be announced in Bilbao, during the Europa League final. Despite the fact that the Metropolitano already successfully hosted the 2019 final, receiving congratulations from UEFA, the club prefers to remain cautious and follow the established protocols.
Atlético has experienced significant growth since its move to the Metropolitano, both socially and economically, making it a strong candidate to host large-scale events. Recently, statements by the president of the Spanish Federation regarding the designation of the venue generated some stir among the fans.
Some interpreted the club’s decision not to challenge the match against Real Madrid in the Champions League as a strategy to secure UEFA’s support. However, the club insists that both candidates continue to work hard to achieve the final designation, and that nothing is decided. Atlético maintains its commitment to professionalism and compliance with the rules throughout the process.
