Spanish police have confirmed a Paris Saint-Germain supporter was stabbed by hooded thugs near Barcelona's Camp Nou last night.

The victim was admitted to a nearby hospital where his condition has been described as serious, but not life threatening.

The attack took place on Felipe de Paz following Barcelona's Champions League victory over PSG, when two hooded individuals approached the victim from behind.

Police are investigating whether a second stabbing which took place when four hooded thugs approached someone on the nearby Avenida Madrid, is also football related. The victim of this second attack has been discharged from hospital

A statement from Barcelona's criminal investigation unit confirmed: "The police are working to determine the exact circumstances of the facts and to detain those responsible."

It comes less than two weeks after a Deportivo fan was killed following violent clashes outside Atletico Madrid's Vicente Calderon stadium.
