Juventus have admitted that they have sold tickets to English based fans ahead of the second-leg of the European Champions League quarter-final.

This has raised fears that the tight security measures that the two clubs had set in place could be breeched, and Juventus have now admitted that this is a possibility.

A Spokesman for Juventus speaking to the Echo stated:

"Juventus would like to clarify that, as of Wednesday, the Juventus ticket office received only 10 requests from the UK."

"The 10 customers bought a total of 28 tickets - in majority for Stands West 1A and East 3A - and out of those 28 tickets, seven have been purchased by two Italian supporters residing in the UK."
