Champions League Final | Istanbul or could it be moved?

[John Wayne]

Wembley is next season for the 8th time. It won't be this season.

They will likely switch years.

UEFA like Wembley. Most seats, most corporate facilities and built-in shops on Wembley Way that sell merchandise. They had the finals there in 2011 and 2013. Their official reason for hosting the 2013 final there was to celebrate 150 years of the Football Association, however, all of the sponsors at the time knew that it was a flimsy excuse to just be able to milk the cow one more time. I still think it will be Istanbul but Wembley will definitely be the preferred option if it isn't Istanbul.

Ffs I’ve got a flight booked. Already lost over £200 on a flight the last time it was moved. Destined never to get to the place!

Old Trafford will be nice...

Only if you’re a wrecking ball.

We'll have to change the Bernardo song.

Poor old Bobby Charlton.

I’d love it if this was moved as there is no way I’d set foot in Turkey again. I worked there on a large power generation project for 15 months in 2001/2, and have been scarred by the experience ever since. Horrible place once you move away from the holiday resorts (which I’ve heard are meant to be ok) although the people I encountered worked there in the summer months which means I’d never set foot in them either. I’m gutted it’s in Turkey so would welcome a move. Fingers crossed

I’m sure uefa are taking your feedback on board mate.

What are the chances of it moving?

That link was the daily mail so quite usual for some hyperbole!

Or Kyiv

The security concerns would obviously be too great but I’d love Kyiv to get a champions league final.

Not likely. It's only a small possibility.

I used to book flights in anticipation of City getting to the final but having a decent weekend away if we didn't get there. I've held off since Covid from doing this sort of thing because it's become too unpredictable. Some airlines offer flexible tickets, so really that is the only option when booking pre-emptively.

they hosted 2018 final when Madrid beat Dippers

Play AC Milan and give them a 3 goal headstart

Mate I’d be more emotionally stable if we could be 3-0 up after 25mins. Not into emotional rollercoasters anymore.
