Champions League Final | Tickets - City Official Package + UEFA Tickets | 2022 Final (pg 1033)

To be honest, I really cannot see it being 1,000 tickets. They have all their gear in Gdansk on the Wednesday. This allows for a 9,500 capacity and 2,000 tickets to each team. I seriously doubt that they'll take it to Portugal for a worse deal than they'd have got in Gdansk where they would already happen to have a presence.
 
Spike said yesterday they would make an announcement at 10.45am today, so it sounds like they've been tipped off.
 
The UK government was willing to have 22,500 at a Wembley CL final, the max. allowed at a PL match is 10,000 even at the bigger stadiums. Same "strange" logic.
80% more capacity at Wembley though compared to Porto's ground. Plus we'd have been jumping from 10,000 fans or 25% (whichever is lower) in the last rounds of league games to 22,500 at Wembley which is still 25% capacity. Not as extreme a leap as 10% for the Portuguese league games to 40%+ for the CL final.

Of course, I'm saying all that in the hope that the 1000 tickets each story is bollocks and we get several thousand tickets!
 
I think everyone needs to calm down, the actual report is from The Sun where they are speculating that it could be 1,000 fans each based on the 10% rule Portugal have brought in. That's it, they've not even put "exclusive" on the report all of the reliable reports from yesterday of around 4,500 - 6,000 still stand.

Nothing more than click bait from The Sun

In fact the report actually says UEFA are putting pressure on to get up to 20,000 in the ground

here's the link to what the City Report twitter account tweeted about

I think spike lost track of his days, I think he was giving the sports options update and typed Thursday 12th May at 1045, when he meant wednesday 12th May at 1045 (his edit was at 10.49)

12,500 is about 25% for the Dragao, that would allow around 4k for each club plus the rest for the corporates etc.

Aha. That makes sense. It real like he was going to give an update today, ie in 7 minutes!
