UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin admits they are considering making a major change to the Champions League because of sheer demand for tickets for the meeting between Liverpool and Tottenham in Madrid.
Speaking to Oxford University, via the Daily Mail, Ceferin says that UEFA had almost a million ticket requests for the final, which Liverpool won 2-0.
Liverpool and Tottenham received just 16,000 tickets each to the Wanda Metropolitano, which holds 67,829 people.
And Cerefin admits that UEFA will now consider just a handful of venues for the showpiece final, which will return to the Ataturk Stadium in Istanbul in 2020.

He said: "My thinking now is we should play the finals in bigger stadiums — even if we go to the same four, five places.
"We had 62,000 tickets in Madrid and 980,000 requests. If we would play for example in Wembley we would have 30,000 more [tickets].
"Probably that as a top, top, top event should be played only at the top venues.
"But Europa League and everything else should be shared with the others who love football."
Cerefin, who was re-elected as president of the European governing body for a further four years in February, did criticise English clubs for their condemnation of UEFA's recent decisions.
UEFA were questioned for allowing the Europa League final between Chelsea and Arsenal to take place in Baku this season.
He said: "I was supported by 76 per cent of the (European) federations in my first (UEFA) election but not England, England supported the other candidate.
"Whenever we have English clubs, whenever we have complaints, they’re mad! You don’t help yourself in the popularity within European football with that.
"If somebody asks me why we played in Baku, I would say: 'People live there. Homo sapiens live there.'
"They had to watch the game at 11pm because of the time difference but nobody complained.
He added: "If we have two Azerbaijani teams playing in London nobody would complain. They would come and play without any problems.
"We decided a year and a half ago that we play in Baku, which has a modern stadium of 70,000. I think there is only one stadium in England that is bigger.
"So you should see the happiness, the humbleness of people when they see live the superstars they like.
"We have to develop football everywhere not England, Germany only."
