UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin stated he was “in favour of a Champions League Final Four” by 2024 in an interview published in France on Saturday.
“Personally, I would like to see it happen,” he instructed sports activities day by day L’Equipe forward of Saturday night time’s Champions League remaining in Porto.
“It may very well be nice. And efficient in phrases of income if it is properly performed.”
Although he is in favour, Ceferin added that “there are advantages and disadvantages”.
“There is no urgency. We can determine this in a yr’s time,” said Ceferin.
He said he was attracted to the idea after last year’s competition ended with a Final 8.

“For the entire football family, their attitude is shocking and unacceptable,” he stated.
