Huge news today as CONMEBOL announced that they plan to hold the Copa America tournament in the United States in July 2016 to mark the South American confederation’s 100th anniversary.
This tournament will include the U.S. and Mexico, along with four other CONCACAF teams and 10 CONMEBOL teams.

“In July of 2016, CONMEBOL will celebrate its first century. Because of this, with the aim to celebrate it with the pomp it deserves, the association presidents and members of the Executive Committee have decided to hold a tournament with nations throughout the Americas,” read a statement from the South American federation.

The Copa America is the premier tournament in South America. Think Euro’s for South America. There is a lot of prestige in winning this competition and many of the best players in the world will be here playing in this tournament. And unlike other trips to the U.S., these stars will be playing in games that count, in front of sold out stadiums across the U.S. It promises to be a great summer of soccer.
