Cüneyt Çakır is expected to officiate the UEFA Champions League final according to former Central Refereeing Committee (MHK) leader Mustafa Çulcu.
Çulcu tweeted that Çakır is favourite to be given the match as he will not officiate any of the semi-final games.
Çakar recently officiated the Napoli – Wolfsburg Europa League quarter-final second leg tie at the San Paolo stadium on Thursday 23 April.
Bahattin Duran and Tarık Ongun were appointed as the second and third officials while Cem Satman will be the forth official.
The additional assistant referees was Hüseyin Göçek and Halis Özkahya.
