Liverpool boss Klopp stunned by price of Champions League tickets

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is stunned by the price of tickets for their Champions League semi with Barcelona.

He voiced his dismay at the fact Liverpool's fans are being charged £103 for semi-final tickets in Barcelona.

Liverpool are subsidising the tickets by £27 by making Barcelona's fans pay the same price for the return leg, but it has left a sour taste.

"As a club we thought about what we can do but, wow, that is really a big price," said Klopp.

"There is nothing good to say about it. We played three times in the last four years pretty much to the last (European) matchday. That was intense mentally and financially.

"Altogether we made some pretty good experiences and hopefully it was worth it.

"But a semi-final, Liverpool versus Barcelona, it was pretty clear they don't make presents. That's big money for Barca."
