Will the UEFA Champions League Men's Final be held in a non-European city (e.g., New York, Riyadh) before the end of 2030?

The Continental Commitment

Holding the Champions League Final outside Europe has been discussed frequently due to the enormous financial incentive from global markets (simulated late 2025 context). However, UEFA's core identity is deeply rooted in European football. Current official bidding for the 2028 and 2029 finals only includes European cities, explicitly suggesting a non-European final will not happen until **at least 2030** (Source 6.1). The $55\%$ 'No' vote reflects the powerful logistical, fan, and political pushback from member associations against moving the final. A decision to move the final would likely have been made and announced much earlier to meet the planning window, making the move **before the end of 2030** unlikely.
