It seems unlikely to be there, doesn't it? However, they could take out 30,000 seats and it would still have the required capacity. Seems like quite a few have heard the same rumours.
Champions League Final | Istanbul or could it be moved?

Heard the rumor, but I think its just Chinese whispers at this point as I have heard nada from my indirect contact within the club.
Hope it’s not moved as booked me & my lad 4 nights in Antalya via Jet2. As it been said internal flights to Istanbul are every hour (flight time 1h 20m/30m) & cheap as chips; less than £40 each way p.p. In Istanbul lunchtime Sat, back 6:15am Sun, so no Istanbul hotel & back on the lounger in Antalya hotel by 9am, hopefully as a CL & treble winner! Back in Manchester early hours Monday for the parade - well that’s the dream! Only Real Madrid (plus one of the Milan’s) & the Turkish election stand in our way!

Portugal would be a much better option on ways to get there. Maybe that's why nobody has received emails regarding uefa ballot yet, as there's no guarantee where the venue is
Not for everyone who’s took a punt on flights & hotels it wouldn’t
That would be ideal.
Cheaper to get to
Easier to get to
Quicker to get to
Easier to get around the city
Portugal has the same number of syllables as Istanbul so easy to change songs

Much better ground and location but I'll be much more nervous about getting tickets with the smaller ground capacity
