Manchester United have announced they will pay for their travelling fans’ visas when the club fly to Russia to face FC Rostov in the UEFA Europa League.

Mike Keegan for the MailOnline reported the club will pay “the £118.20 processing fee for around 500 travelling supporters.”

The away leg of United’s round-of-16 tie takes place on March 9, as the Red Devils make the 2,000-mile trip across Europe.

Keegan wrote:

Sportsmail understands that United decided to act as a gesture of goodwill given the short time frame between the draw and the match.
