The final of the European club competition will be held in Paris on May 28 after Russia invaded Ukraine.
The showpiece will be moved to the Stade de France from the 68,000-capacity Gazprom Arena in Putin's home city after an emergency meeting of the executive committee on Friday.
The security situation in Europe has deteriorated so much that the executive committee held an extraordinary meeting today.

Together with the French government, we will support multi-stakeholder efforts to ensure the provision of rescue for football players and their families in Ukraine who face dire human suffering, destruction and displacement.

Russian and Ukrainian clubs and national teams will have to play their home matches at neutral venues until further notice because of the executive committee's decision.
Spartak Moscow and Russia and Ukraine will be affected by this in the 2022-23 Nations League, which is due to start in June.
There is no decision on what to do about the World Cup play-off matches.
The winner of the Sweden vs Czech Republic semi-final will face the winner of the Russia vs Poland play-off in Russia for a place in the World Cup.
The federations of Poland, Sweden and the Czech Republic issued a statement on Thursday saying that matches should not be played on Russian territory.
Infantino said on Thursday that he hoped the situation would be resolved by next month.
The Ukrainian league was suspended after the invasion and the play-off semi-final between Scotland and Ukraine is in doubt.
