The city's administration confirmed a master plan to expand capacity to 60,000, renew the roofs, and modernize the infrastructure. Bidding is set to open in May, with construction starting in late July.
Despite the benefits, the renovation will force Atlético Nacional and Independiente Medellín to find a temporary home for 2026 and 2027. This poses a significant challenge for the clubs' Copa Libertadores and Sudamericana commitments.
