Champions League: UEFA and UK government to hold talks over moving venue for final to London


UEFA will hold talks with the UK government on Monday about moving the Champions League final from Istanbul to London. It is understood the three English Football League play-off finals could be rearranged to allow the all-English Champions League final to be staged at Wembley. The stadium is due to host the Championship play-off final on May 29 - the same day as the Champions League final - with the League One and League Two equivalents arranged for the following two days. It is understood the EFL would consider all options - including altering the arrangements for those fixtures to accommodate the Champions League final - should they be contacted by UEFA.
