Amsterdam ruled out as Champions' League final venue

Holland will be unable to host the Champions League final until they have a stadium with a 70,000 capacity, UEFA have told the Dutch Football Association (KNVB).

The KNVB nominated the Amsterdam ArenA, the biggest stadium in Holland, as a candidate for European club football’s 2010 or 2011 showpiece. However, they have now been informed the ArenA, with a capacity of 51,638 is too small.
