Bilbao braced for 'colonisation' of 80,000 Brits for Europa League final while Man United and Tottenham fans prepare to pay THOUSANDS for hotels and flights amid dynamic pricing row ahead of showpiece event

Over 80,000 fans of Manchester United and Tottenham are expected to descend on Bilbao for this year's Europa League final next week, with the city's residents braced for an invasion the likes of which they have 'never faced' before, according to reports in Spain.

The two Premier League sides booked their spot in the final following impressive wins against Athletic Bilbao and Bodo/Glimt respectively, and will look to salvage their seasons at San Mames after less than impressive league showings.

Ange Postecoglou's side currently sit 17th in the Premier League standings, with Ruben Amorim's players just one spot above them in 16th place.
