Man Utd officials will stay home to help fans make Europa League final

Manchester United have been allocated less than 10,000 tickets for the Europa League final against Ajax.

Thousands will be forced to miss the clash with Ajax despite the 'Friends Arena' in Stockholm holding more than 50,000 fans.

The Daily Star says United bosses have cancelled taking a travelling club party of around 800 staff to the game to free up some extra tickets for supporters.

In the past the Red Devils have treated staff to trips to finals and laid on travel and hotels for them.

But it is understood just senior club officials will now attend the game on May 24 so more fans can go instead.
