Manchester City’s billionaire owner, Sheikh Mansour, has arrived in Istanbul for the Champions League final as his team aim to make history against Inter Milan.
City, who are vying for a treble, will face Inter at the Ataturk Stadium in their quest to secure their first-ever Champions League trophy.
The significance of the match is underscored by reports stating that Sheikh Mansour will attend a City game for the first time in 13 years.
His last appearance was during a 3-0 home victory over Liverpool in 2010. Remarkably, this is the only City match that the Emirati royal has personally witnessed, despite the numerous finals the club has played since his takeover in 2008 and the remarkable 17 trophies they have amassed.

In light of the magnitude of Saturday’s showcase event, Sheikh Mansour has reportedly flown into Turkey via private jet.
City have the opportunity not only to win their first European trophy, but also to make their mark on English football history.
Manchester United is currently the only club in the country to have won the treble, which they did in 1999. With the Premier League and FA Cup already secured, Pep Guardiola’s side could create their own historic moment—a feat that Sheikh Mansour undoubtedly hopes will be realised.
