The sources said Turkey was expecting to host the 2023 Champions League final in Istanbul, as part of the agreement with European soccer's ruling body.European soccer's governing body has been locked in meetings to find a solution to the final on May 29 after the UK government placed Turkey on its travel"red list" on Friday, effectively ruling out the opportunity for supporters of the English clubs to attend the game.
