Munich – Are Bayern Munich fans paying too much? Supporters of the record champions have protested against RB Salzburg over ticket prices in the Champions League round of 16, and now UEFA is taking care of that.
“There are contacts with UEFA on this matter, and the process is ongoing,” Salzburg FC said in an interview with Kicker. In last Wednesday’s match, the activist Bayern Munich fans’ union protested over expensive tickets with a clearly visible “club number 12” banner.
In addition, a statement on the fan union’s website complained of “prices that do not comply with the rules.” This statement refers to UEFA regulations, according to which fans of a visiting team in similar categories do not have to pay higher ticket prices than supporters of the host.
