According to our calculations, the game at Ak Bars Arena will also give the best financial result of the match. Let me remind you that it is the participating clubs that will receive most of the proceeds; last year this amount exceeded 150 million rubles. We also took into account that the region is most interested in hosting the match and is ready to use the developments that Tatarstan has been preparing for the UEFA Super Cup,” said Alexander Dyukov, head of the RFU.
