A 'nightmare' awaits MU and Tottenham fans.

Manchester United and Tottenham fans are facing a price shock as the cost of accommodation and travel to Bilbao, the host city of the Europa League final, skyrockets daily.

Manchester United and Tottenham fans had to spend huge sums of money to watch this season's Europa League final.

The final on May 21st in Bilbao (Spain) is likely to be an all-English clash. In the first leg of the semi-final, Manchester United won 3-0 against Athletic Club and have almost secured their place in the final. Meanwhile, Tottenham also overcame Bodo/Glimt with a 3-1 victory and have a strong chance of progressing.

Fans of both Premier League teams are already planning their trip to the Basque Country. However, the challenge of securing flights and hotels is deterring many.

With less than three weeks until the match, most hotels in central Bilbao are either fully booked or have increased their prices to over £1,000 per night. All direct flights from London and Manchester to Bilbao in the week of the final are sold out.

The cheapest option currently is to fly via Milan, departing a day before the match and returning after it, but even then, the ticket price is no less than £350. Some fans are considering flying to Madrid and then traveling by train or bus, or even driving long distances across Spain after landing in other cities.

On social media, many fans complained about the exorbitant cost of the trip. One person wrote: "I just checked hotel prices in Bilbao. Are there any campsites nearby?" Another sarcastically commented: "Good luck if you're still planning on booking a hotel in Bilbao."

Another person shared: "Stuck between desperately wanting to go to Bilbao for the final and my bank account refusing all flights." Another fan summed up the general sentiment: "The prices of plane tickets and hotels for the Europa League final in Bilbao are insane."
