​Tickets to watch just the second ever El Clasico played on foreign soil in the USA next summer are expected to cost nine times the price of a ticket for this year's Champions League final in Cardiff.





Bitter rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid recently announced that they will face each other ahead of the 2017/2018 campaign when on their pre-season tours of America.

Tickets for #ElClasicoMiami are available!

The latest instalment of the Champions Cup, which will also see Manchester rivals City and United play one another, sees the El Clasico rivals meet on July 29th at Miami's Hard Rock stadium.





The match will mark a significant event in one of football's oldest rivalry, as it will be the first time that the two sides have faced one another outside of Spain.





Any hope that that tickets will be both affordable and available to many fans have been dashed however, as the ​Sun reports that the cost of the cheapest seated ticket has a starting price of £520.

In contrast, the cheapest ticket to watch the Champions League final at the Millennium Stadium in May is just £60.





Those happy to watch the match in Miami in a standing only area will pay significantly less, although the starting price of £160 is hardly reasonable. For those happy to pay for the more expensive seats and enjoy the pre-season El Clasico in luxury, the most expensive price starts at £3600, which would comfortably cover a season ticket for any Premier League club.

It is not the first time that football matches played in the US have been blighted by extortionate ticket prices.





When granted the honour of hosting the centenary edition of the Copa America tournament last summer, many American football fans were priced out of attending matches and meant that many group games were played in half-empty stadiums.
