Manchester City have sold out their Champions League quarter-final with PSG – a new club-record for the competition.

Their previous high saw them sell 50,363 for the game with Juventus earlier this season.

The club reported on Tuesday afternoon that there were no seats remaining, with the capacity for Champions League games capped at 53,000.

Sales were initially slow but the result of the first leg in Paris – which saw City put themselves in an excellent position to qualify thanks to a 2-2 draw – has seen a scramble for tickets ensue.

Three weeks ago, fan collective the 1894 Group had expressed their anxiety about the price of the tickets for the game, with talk of an organised protest circulating on social media.

“There is huge concern about where ticket prices are going,” a group statement said. “Not only can that affect the atmosphere at home games but there is huge concern over where this would end.

“Would we see £70/£80 tickets for a semi-final? Would we see further rises for season tickets next year?

“We always try to reflect what City fans are saying to us and what they are saying is that they want the club to listen.

“If the club don’t listen some fans will walk away from the club regardless of who the manager is and regardless of who we sign.”

At the game with West Brom on Saturday, there were a number of fans holding banners complaining about the prices.

However, the club are now likely to feel their pricing structure was justified given the unprecedented demand for tickets.
