CONMEBOL Weighs Moving 2025 Copa Libertadores Final From Lima Over Peru’s Political Turmoil

The confederation is reassessing security guarantees before issuing any decision.

Overview

  • The single-match final is scheduled for 29 November at Estadio Monumental in Lima, a venue confirmed in August after high-level talks.
  • Reports led by RPP say CONMEBOL is evaluating a venue change following the vacancia of Dina Boluarte and the swearing-in of José Jerí.
  • A source quoted by El Comercio said “Hoy es Lima,” indicating there is no official change and that the status remains under review.
  • The Peruvian federation is engaging directly through Agustín Lozano and CONMEBOL’s Alejandro Domínguez, while Universitario says it has received no notice and continues preparations.
  • Media have floated Buenos Aires and Asunción under internal relocation protocol, but alternatives remain speculative without a formal resolution, with the 2019 Santiago-to-Lima move cited as precedent.
