Despite the potential travel headaches for the following day, Gunners midfielder Declan Rice is urging the Arsenal support to travel in their tens of thousands to witness history. Arsenal have been handed a general admission allocation of 16,824 tickets for the final, but the England international is hoping for a much larger presence in the Hungarian capital to spur the team on.
Rice expressed his excitement for the occasion, stating: “Bring it on, bring it on - I’ll be ready. Let’s see what happens.Budapest, I want every Arsenal fan out there. 200,000 of you, come out! Let’s try and do it because we’re going to need all the support, all the energy and let’s make it really special.”
