Where is UCL final 2023?

The UEFA Executive Committee decided on Friday that the Turkish city of Istanbul will host the 2023 Champions League final.

Due to the relocation of the 2021 Champions League final from Istanbul to Porto, it was decided to award the 2023 Champions League final to the Turkish city of Istanbul's Atatürk Olympic Stadium. In addition, the kick-off event for the European club season - which includes the group stage draws for the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League - will take place in Istanbul at the end of August for both the 2021-22 and 2022-23 seasons.

On the other hand, the 2023 Champions League final, originally scheduled to be held in Munich, Germany, will be moved to 2025. Wembley Stadium will retain the right to host the 2024 Champions League final. Finally, Dublin will host the Europa League final in 2024, while Bilbao will host the women's Champions League final in 2024 and the Europa League final in 2025.

Real Madrid and Lyon are out to defend their crowns, after adding to their legend during the 2021-22 European season

Another football season is upon us, and with it begins the long battle for the Champions League title among Europe's elite clubs in both the men's and women's games.

Real Madrid enhanced their status as the most successful club in the competition's history last season when they beat Liverpool in the final to win the title for the 14th time. Meanwhile, Lyon overcame Barcelona to win the Women's Champions League final for the eighth time in their history.

With the record winners of both competitions coming out on top once again, it was business as usual in the Champions Leagues in 2021-22. This term, however, will be somewhat unique as the season is going to be disrupted when the World Cup kicks off in Qatar in November.
