Overview
- Liga BBVA MX and the FMF authorized Cruz Azul to relocate its home games to Estadio Cuauhtémoc in Puebla for the Clausura 2026 after a formal request met competition rules.
- The club’s first home match, against Atlas, was moved to Wednesday, January 14 at 5:00 p.m. local time at the Cuauhtémoc.
- UNAM, via its SPAMSU office, notified Cruz Azul on January 6 that it would not renew use of Estadio Olímpico Universitario, following a renewal request submitted in mid-October.
- Reports that pointed to a return to Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes were overtaken by the Puebla approval, and separate reporting indicates América is slated to return to the Azteca on April 11, easing calendar congestion.
- Cruz Azul’s cooperative assembly approved a 5.4 billion‑peso budget for a future club-owned stadium targeted before 2030, as the team reaches a fourth different home in as many years.
