The competition, which has established itself as a benchmark in youth football since its inception in 2021, will have its nerve center at the Alcalá de Henares Sports Center.
The 2024 tournament brought together nearly 800 national and international teams, including several formations from the Rojiblanca youth academy, covering categories from youth to pre-Benjamin.
Enrique Cerezo, president of the club, expressed his satisfaction for Atlético de Madrid’s continued support of MADCUP: ‘MADCUP was born as a project with ambition and a vision for the future, and today it is an indisputable reality: it is the largest and best federated grassroots football tournament in the world’.

“Atleti B
Atlético de Madrid B arrives with high morale after the home victory against Hércules (1-0), thanks to a great goal by Rayane, which allows them to consolidate in the upper area of the table, occupying sixth position, just two points from the promotion playoff.
Fernando Torres’ boys have their second consecutive home win and are looking to reconnect with victory away from home, after the defeats against Ceuta (2-1) and Recreativo (2-1).
Despite these recent setbacks, the season away from home has been positive, with four wins (Alcorcón, Fuenlabrada, Hércules and Betis Deportivo) and four draws (Intercity, Ibiza, Murcia and Alcoyano).
The next rival, Atlético Sanluqueño, will be a very different opponent from the one that defeated the Rojiblanco subsidiary in the first round. The team has evolved significantly since then and has gained maturity.
Although Sanluqueño is in the lower area of the standings, the fight for salvation is very tight and every point is crucial. The Cadiz team is coming off two consecutive defeats, although previously it had achieved positive results. A difficult match is expected, but Fernando Torres’ team is confident in its potential to continue climbing positions in the table and maintain the good dynamic.
