The Champions League final is scheduled to take place in Istanbul next Saturday, May 29. Despite this, the finalists Manchester City and Chelsea have asked UEFA to change it to Wembley, in London, due to the situation of the pandemic in Turkey.
The Turkish Football Federation has no concern that a change of venue may occur, despite the request of the two finalists. The delegations of both English clubs are already in Istanbul to organize all the details of the final together with representatives of UEFA and members of the Turkish Football Federation. Servet Yardımcı, a member of the UEFA board of directors and vice president of the Turkish Football Federation, confirmed the meeting to AS today in Istanbul.
Yardımcı stressed that Turkey has been preparing for the final for a year and a half. “There is opportunism in England because the two British teams reached the final. We can call it a populist rampage in England. There is no situation that should be taken seriously in any way. This is out of any doubt. It is out of the question that Istanbul is sacrificed three weeks before the final. The UEFA statement will be made anyway “has qualified Yardımcı.
Yardımcı expressed that UEFA is already clear that the venue for the final is the Atatürk Olympic Stadium: “UEFA has already reported that the final is out of the question. The conditions under which it will be played will also be announced. We have been working for a year and a half on all logistical and sporting aspects, and all the conditions are met. The organizational capacities of our country are already evident. This final is the most important final in the world and it has many details. It has to be perfect. Hopefully it will be an unforgettable final like the 2005 final “, Servet Yardımcı declared.
