Asunciรณn, Paraguay โ€“ Olimpia's assembly is set to convene today, July 8, 2026, to grant authorization for acquiring real estate to construct a new stadium, with an eye toward the 2030 World Cup.

The meeting, scheduled for 6:00 PM, will address two key objectives. The first is an extraordinary session to conclude previous business, followed by an ordinary session for new matters. The agenda includes ratifying contracts related to the development of the new Osvaldo Domรญnguez Dibb stadium.

A significant item for consideration is the approval for the acquisition of properties adjacent to or linked with the club's "Manuel Ferreira" headquarters. This move is intended to support the club's institutional, patrimonial, or infrastructural development. The assembly must also empower the board of directors to negotiate and finalize all necessary legal and financial instruments for these operations.

Furthermore, the assembly will vote on ratifying the president's authority to structure and negotiate financial instruments, including trusts, for the club's reorganization and restructuring. This includes authorizing the transfer of properties, such as "Manuel Ferreira" (Para Uno) and adjacent lands, to a trust. The agenda also proposes modifying the club's statutes to reform its member categorization system.
