I am interested to know what was the highest amount paid for champions league final tickets.

Some quotes were of touts asking for 9000euros( £7000) approx.

but it doesn't mean people were actually buying them at that price. I don't know what they came down to, but I know plenty of people were willing to go to 1000 euros to get in. so i reckon the majority looking paid around that. prices must have come down as kick off started to near. but the basic problem was a scarcity of available tickets hence the high prices quoted on the news. still refuse to believe anyone would actually pay that for a football match though. unless they simply have so much money that such an amount is meaningless to them.

970 quid. And I got crushed queuing for the turnstiles because they didn't open the damn gate until 5 mins before kickoff.. Still, it was a magical even and I wouldn't change it (apart from the last 15 minutes of course).
