UEFA Europa League News

The UK Government has said it is "deeply saddened" that Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv have decided to decline any tickets offered to their fans for the Europa League match at Villa Park.

Maccabi Tel Aviv will decline any tickets offered to their fans for the Europa League match at Villa Park, the Israeli club have said.

The UK Government is exploring what extra support police in Birmingham would need to allow fans from both sides into Aston Villa's match against Maccabi Tel Aviv in November.

Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer fans won't be allowed to attend a Europa League game at Aston Villa next month because of security concerns.

Alan Pace says plans are in place to avoid a Crystal Palace-Lyon situation after the Burnley owner completed the takeover of Spanish side Espanyol last week.
