Manchester City owner Sheikh Mansour will attend the UEFA Champions League final on Saturday night.
Club sources confirmed to the PA news agency that Sheik will be present in Istanbul as City face Inter Milan, who are bidding for Europe’s top club prize for the first time.
It will be only the second game he has attended since his investment vehicle, the Abu Dhabi United Group, bought City in 2008.
Chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak was also scheduled to attend an exhibition match at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium.
City have become a dominant force in the English game under Mansour with the club winning seven Premier League titles in the last 12 years and five of the last six.
Victory in Turkey on Saturday would also see them become only the second English team to win the treble, having already retained the domestic title and won the FA Cup.
City also now lies at the heart of a global network of 13 clubs known as the City Football Group.
