Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour will attend the Champions League final in Istanbul in his first appearance at a game in almost 13 YEARS – with the club on the brink of winning the Treble
Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour will attend the Champions League final in Istanbul tonight, his first appearance at a game in almost 13 years.
Mansour, the vice-president of the United Arab Emirates, is believed to have flown to Turkey to watch the club compete for their maiden trophy in the competition.
Since buying City in 2008, Mansour has been present at just one competitive fixture, a Premier League home victory against Liverpool in August 2010.
He has also watched two exhibition matches in Abu Dhabi.
However, he has now jetted out on a private plane in a bid to witness history, with City just one win away from clinching a historic Treble this season.
