Real Madrid rejects UEFA fan refund offers for final chaos

Associated Press  

GENEVA — Real Madrid has rejected UEFA’s plan to refund some fans the price of their ticket to last year’s chaotic Champions League final in Paris, and the club said Thursday it would help them file their own legal claims. The offer to Madrid and Liverpool fans last week had been promised by UEFA after an investigation panel it appointed outlined serious organizational failures leading to a near “mass fatality catastrophe” at Stade de France on May 28. is insufficient,” Madrid said, adding it had been “entirely confident that these solutions would be in line with the seriousness of the events, the extent of the damage caused and UEFA’s responsibility for them.” “For this reason, Real Madrid has decided not to cooperate in the restricted compensation procedure proposed by UEFA, which we ask to redress the situation and assume its full responsibility,” it said. The club said it would help “members and fans who experienced any kind of harm at the 2022 Champions League final in Paris to make the appropriate claims against UEFA for their personal and legitimate interests.” UEFA said last week it made a “comprehensive and fair” offer of compensation to the fans “most affected by the difficulties in accessing the stadium.” ___ More AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports
