1,000 Italy fans to be allowed in to UK for Euro 2020 final at Wembley
Lucky holders of €610 tickets will have to fly in and out on Sunday, remain in a bubble and quarantine on return

One thousand Italy supporters are to be shuttled into the UK this weekend to provide an officially sanctioned Azzurri chorus for the Euro 2020 final against England.

While home fans come to terms with a historic semi-final victory and offer thousands of pounds to strangers on the internet in the hope of getting into Wembley on Sunday night, the UK government has eased the rules for a small number of travelling supporters and twice as many VIPs, meaning they can attend the match without Covid quarantine.


The Italian football federation will distribute 1,000 tickets at €610 (£525) a head to fans desperate to attend. The terms and conditions require that the fans travel in and out of the UK on Sunday. They will remain in a bubble, stewarded and segregated at all times, with no contact with the general public, and they will have to quarantine for five days upon return to Italy.
