The Águilas del América will play Chelsea in a friendly match on July 31 in Atlanta, Georgia.
Tickets will be available on March 13 to witness the Liga MX champion against one of the most popular teams in Europe.
According to TUDN, the president of América, Santiago Baños, was enthusiastic about the confrontation against the British team, highlighting the opportunity to play against a high-level team.
América has had a good performance in Liga MX and in the Concacaf Champions Cup, where they defeated their rival Chivas de Guadalajara. The game will take place at Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta and tickets will be available through Ticketmaster.
The official statement reads: “Atlanta will welcome elite international soccer to Mercedes-Benz Stadium when Chelsea FC of England takes on Club América of Mexico on Wednesday, July 31, 2024.” Although ticket prices have not yet been announced, more details about the match are expected in the coming days.
It should be remembered that in July 2022, the Águilas, under the command of Fernando Ortiz, lost 2-1 to the Blues at Allegiant Stadium. In that match, Timo Werner and Mason Mount scored for the London team, while América’s goal was an own goal by Reece James.
