UEFA: Baku or Madrid? The Race to Host the 2027 Champions League Final

 

 

The prestigious 2027 UEFA Champions League final will occur in either Azerbaijan or Spain. UEFA announced that both countries had submitted strong bids to host Europe’s biggest club soccer event. This decision follows UEFA’s choice to remove Milan’s iconic San Siro from consideration due to a lack of progress on its modernization. Despite initially favoring Milan, UEFA needed clear commitments for renovations to align with Italy’s upcoming hosting of the 2026 Winter Olympics and the 2032 European Championship. After extended delays, UEFA opted to reopen the selection process, opening the door for other ambitious cities.

Now, the Olympic Stadium in Baku and Madrid’s Metropolitano Stadium are vying for the chance to host the 2027 final. For Baku, this would be the first time hosting a Champions League final, although the Olympic Stadium has experience with major events, including the 2019 Europa League final. The stadium is known for its striking design and substantial capacity, offering fans a memorable setting for this major occasion. Hosting the final in Baku would also emphasize UEFA’s commitment to making the Champions League a truly global spectacle, reaching fans in regions where such prestigious events are rare.

On the other hand, Madrid’s Metropolitano Stadium is no stranger to the Champions League final, having successfully hosted it in 2019 when Liverpool triumphed over Tottenham Hotspur. The Metropolitano, home to Atletico Madrid, combines state-of-the-art facilities with an electric atmosphere that only a city with Madrid’s rich soccer history can provide. A return to the Spanish capital would underscore Spain's long-standing tradition of supporting European soccer and its legacy as a Champions League powerhouse.

The final bids must be submitted by March 19, with UEFA’s executive committee expected to make its decision by May 2025. Whichever city is chosen, fans can look forward to an unforgettable showcase of Europe’s finest clubs.
