UCL: Final tickets soar to N6.8 million each 

Champions League final tickets are being re-sold for more than £9,000 with Liverpool fans facing a desperate scramble to get hold of one before Saturday's final.

The Reds take on Spanish giants Real Madrid in Paris on Saturday night at the Stade de France, as they chase a third trophy win this season.

Liverpool and Real Madrid both received allocations of 19,618 tickets but many more are keen to grab a ticket, leading to eye-watering prices on popular re-sale websites. 

UEFA's initial fan ballot gave supporters a range of ticketing options between €70 (£60) and €690 (£586). 

But with those tickets long sold, fans without one have desperately turned to re-sale websites in the hope of landing a precious seat for the final at the Stade de France, which can hold up to 70,000 people.

The top-tier VIP Longside hospitality package is being promoted on livefootballtickets.com at £12,500, while the next category 1 hospitality ticket is available for £9,995. 

Of the non-VIP tickets, fans face paying just under £9,000 for a Category 1 ticket, while the cheapest restricted view seat has been made available at just over £1,880, a total of £1,300 more than UEFA's most expensive offering in the fan ballot.
