🚨 | UEFA RULES ROW: ARSENAL ACCUSED OF TRYING TO CUT PSG FAN ALLOCATION FOR UCL SEMI-FINAL
Gunners reportedly attempting to reduce away end to 2500 seats, sparking controversy
Just six days before a Champions League semi-final showdown at the Emirates, Arsenal are being accused of breaching UEFA regulations by attempting to cut PSG’s away fan allocation from the mandatory 5% (3,000 seats) down to 2,500, according to Sport Bible via France Bleu.
KEY DETAILS:
UEFA requires 5% of stadium capacity to be reserved for away fans.
Arsenal are allegedly withholding 500 seats, with the away ticket office still not open.
PSG fans are currently in limbo and unable to purchase tickets for the high-stakes tie.
CONTEXT:
This isn’t the first time Arsenal have come under fire for allocation issues — they were similarly criticized in January for giving Manchester United only 8,000 of their 9,000 entitled FA Cup tickets.
WHAT THIS MEANS:
If proven, it could result in disciplinary action from UEFA.
Tensions between clubs off the pitch may escalate.
PSG are reportedly fighting for full allocation, citing fairness and safety.
This developing story adds a layer of off-field drama to one of the most antici
pated ties of the season.
