When we talk about Saimon Marchiniak, now he has overcome his hurdles and survived. It was uncertain whether he would be in charge of the Champions League final match, but the rumors were swirling. Now he is serving as the referee for the Champions League final.


On May 29, he attended the Everest Business Conference organized by Poland's right-wing leader, Slawomir's manager. During that conference, Marchiniak spoke out about removing responsibilities from refereeing the Champions League final. After conducting an investigation, UEFA released a statement saying, "We have dissociated these incidents from the conference." Asking for forgiveness, Marchiniak said, "If any harm has been caused due to these events, I apologize. The investigation has proven that I was emotionally confused. I did not know that it was related to the extreme right-wing movement in Poland."


The Champions League final for the 2022-23 season will take place in Istanbul on June 10. Manchester City and Inter Milan will face each other in the final. Marchiniak will be responsible for refereeing the City-Inter final. Before this, in the semifinal leg of the Champions League this season, Marchiniak officiated the Real Madrid-Manchester City match. In that match, City defeated Real Madrid 4-0. Prior to that, in the 2022 FIFA World Cup final between Argentina and France, a Polish referee officiated the match.
