Europa League: UEFA offers to help Arsenal fans travelling to Baku for Chelsea final

The Hindu  

UEFA has defended its "fair and transparent bidding process" for the Europa League final and is working to find cheaper options for Arsenal and Chelsea fans travelling to Baku. RELATED | Arsenal slams UEFA's 'unacceptable' Europa League final organisation The Premier League heavyweights have been allocated no more than 6,000 tickets each, a small fraction of the 68,700-capacity Olympic Stadium and a number ridiculed by supporter groups of both sides. UEFA's move to alleviate the stress on local airports led a "bitterly disappointed" Arsenal to brand the awarding of hosting rights to a venue with "such limited transport provision" as "quite simply not right". RELATED | Emery questions decision to host Europa League final in Baku While confirming its readiness to work with Arsenal, UEFA further argued that showpiece contests such as the Europa League final should not be confined to countries with high-performing clubs.
