Statistics that prove that Chelsea are potential winners of the UEFA Champions League this season.

 The champions league final which is scheduled for an all English side Chelsea and Manchester City is to be played in Istanbul. The Turkish capital is due to ease restrictions soon and UEFA have committed to holding the game there.

The sporting body hope 4,000 tickets can be secured for the two finalists with the aim to fill the stadium’s 75,000 capacity of 50 per cent.

 Meanwhile a concern body suggest that the game be move to England since both teams are in the country and also due to the coronavirus restrictions on Turkey at the moment.

Goldstein, has given his thought on the reason why they believe the game be moved to Wembley.

“This game is scheduled to be played in Turkey, which at the moment is in lockdown.

“I understand that they will be coming out of lockdown, hopefully, just under two weeks before. 

“If UEFA have got any common sense they will move this game to Wembley. Two English sides and in COVID times, this game shouldn’t be in a country hit so badly at the moment.

Should the Champions League final be moved to Wembley;

“After the year we’ve had where everyone has been in lockdown and has been awful, we could play this game at Wembley with 25 per cent capacity and you’d have two English sides at Wembley.

“I know the people at UEFA aren’t necessarily listening to this show… some might… but someone at UEFA with a little bit of common sense have got to get this game moved to Wembley so the Man City fan, the Chelsea fan have a chance of going to see this final.

“It has to be played over here.

 “It makes too much sense. It’s an argument that has few flaws in it.

“I can’t argue with that. UEFA will have their reasons to say no, but it makes too much sense.
