Arsenal have expressed their disappointment after they and Chelsea were handed a measly allocation of 6,000 tickets each for the Europa League final.

Unai Emery's side defeated Valencia 4-2 in their semi-final second leg while Chelsea relied on penalties to see off Eintracht Frankfurt at Stamford Bridge.

Afterwards, Arsenal updated their fans on the situation ahead of the all-English showdown in Baku on May 29, showing their frustration in a statement.

'As many of you will be aware, we are proud to have approximately 45,000 season ticket holders and over 180,000 official members,' Arsenal wrote on their website.

'It is inevitable that with an allocation of just 6,000 tickets for the final, there will be thousands of fans who have supported the club for years and been part of our Europa League journey this season, who will be unable to attend this match.'

'This is a disappointing situation.'
