The 2023 U-20 Copa CONMEBOL Libertadores (Spanish: Copa CONMEBOL Libertadores Sub-20 2023) was the 7th edition of the U-20 CONMEBOL Libertadores (also referred to as the U-20 Copa Libertadores), South America's premier under-20 club football tournament organized by CONMEBOL. It was held in Chile from 1 to 16 July 2023.[1][2]
Peñarol were the defending champions, having won the 2022 tournament, but were unable to retain their title after losing to Boca Juniors in the semi-finals, leading them to play the third place match against Cerro Porteño, which they also lost but on penalties. Boca Juniors defeated Independiente del Valle 2–0 in the final to win their first U-20 Copa Libertadores title.[3] As winners of the 2023 U-20 Copa Libertadores, Boca Juniors earned the right to play against AZ, the winners of the 2022–23 UEFA Youth League, in the 2023 Under-20 Intercontinental Cup.[4][5]
