"it is negotiating Play a final of the Champions League in New York", ensured Roures, something that would revolutionise entirely the format of the most important competition of the old continent to level of clubs. Nevertheless, the idea has been denied by Aleksander Ceferin, current president of the UEFA.
"This idea is not arguing at present at all". Like this of clear was the maximum leader of the European organism in Nyon, denying any rumour that the final of the Champions League go to United States in 2021. "The UEFA does not have plans to organise the final of the Champions League out of Europe", concluded.
However, the statements of Aleksander Ceferin this week bump with the idea that suggested two years ago, in 2016, when it ensured that carry the final of the Champions League out of Europe "could be an idea in the future" during an interview for Associated Press.
The Champions League, different that LaLiga Santander
It is necessary to remember that the final of the League of Champions of 2019 will contest in Wanda Metropolitan, stadium of the Athletic of Madrid, and that the one of a year later in 2020, will contest in the stadium Atatürk of Istanbul, by the decision taken by the executive committee of the UEFA.
In this way, it seems descartada, in a near future, that the Champions League take a similar course to the of LaLiga Santander that, during the next 15 years, will play at least a party of the competition in American earths, being FC Barcelona or Real Madrid one of his protagonists.
