Marcelo Claure, president of Bolívar and co-founder of Inter Miami, said it bluntly in an interview with ADN: the Copa América should always be played in the United States. 🇺🇸 He compared the organization of the 2026 World Cup to a Super Bowl: full stadiums, zero incidents, perfect logistics.
What was supposed to be just another opinion lingered as a real threat. Alejandro Domínguez, president of CONMEBOL, did not close the door: “We’ll see about that”, he replied when asked directly.
It would not be the first time. The Copa América was already played entirely on U.S. soil in 2016 and in 2024, with Argentina lifting the trophy in Miami. Now 2028 is being discussed as an almost certain host. Will the world’s oldest national team tournament end up moving there forever? 🏆
