The 2017 Champions League final will be held at the 74,500
capacity Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, UEFA announced Tuesday.
The decision was made at a UEFA executive committee in Prague.
The 2017 Europa League final will be at the Friends Arena in
Stockholm and Europe’s Super Cup will be in Skopje, said UEFA
general secretary Gianni Infantino.
“The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff is one of the few stadiums
which can host a Champions League final, it has become such an
event,” Infantino told a press conference.
“We can’t go every year to Wembley or to Berlin or whatever, we
need to rotate a little bit.”
A UEFA executive committee in Prague also discussed preparations
for next year’s European Championships in France.
Infantino said there had been five million applications for one million
tickets currently on sale. He said the applications had come from
193 countries.
