Liverpool handed just 16,613 tickets for Champions League final

Liverpool have been allocated just 16,613 tickets for next month's Champions League final in Madrid.

A seat at the Wanda Metropolitano will cost supporters between £60 and £513 for the biggest game in European club football. Even areas in Atletico Madrid's ground with restricted view cost as much as £410.

Jurgen Klopp's side booked their place at the June 1 showpiece after one of the most incredible comebacks in Champions League history against Barcelona on Tuesday.

But now their fans face a mad scramble for tickets, with many thousands of Scousers expected to descend on the Spanish capital for the June clash against either Ajax or Tottenham.

The club have also been given 300 'top category seats', reserved for players’ families, the Reds UEFA Youth League team players and staff, club staff, as well as VIPs.

The majority of fans travelling to Madrid will do so without tickets - and face paying eye-watering prices just to get to Spain.

Within hours of the final whistle at Anfield on Tuesday, flights from Liverpool to Madrid had rocketed to more than £750 for a one-way ticket on the day before the game.

There are no remaining direct flights from Liverpool to Madrid on the day of the game and the city's Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram has blasted easyJet as 'shameful' after the airline's prices for football fans travelling to next month's Champions League final in Madrid shot up overnight.
