Tottenham have handed indefinite bans to three season ticket holders who listed their Champions League final tickets for resale, the Premier League club have confirmed.
Spurs promised to take action against those listing their tickets for the June 1 showpiece on secondary ticketing platforms as it is against their terms and conditions and is against the law.
“The club has this week issued indefinite bans to three Season Ticket Holders who have listed their UEFA Champions League Final tickets for sale on a secondary ticketing platform,” a Tottenham statement read.
“Once again, we wish to remind all our supporters that any ticket purchased is for the sole use of the individual that purchases it from the club. Transferring or selling tickets on unofficially breaches our terms and conditions and is against the law.
“We shall look to take the strongest possible action against anyone found to be engaging in such activity – including indefinite Season Ticket bans.”
The north London club also warned they will cancel match tickets for the Wanda Metropolitano clash against Liverpool if they are sold on by supporters after collection.
The statement continued: “Additionally – if we are made aware of tickets being sold on by supporters after collection we will cancel the original match tickets with UEFA and the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid, meaning these tickets will no longer be valid for entry to the stadium.

Both clubs’ supporters’ trusts have urged sponsors to return some of their tickets to fans, with 22,300 tickets made available to the local organising committee, UEFA and national associations, commercial partners and broadcasters, and to serve the corporate hospitality programme.
A joint statement from Liverpool group Spirit of Shankly (SOS) and the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust (THST) read: “Spirit of Shankly and Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust – the independent official fan groups of Liverpool and Spurs – are calling on the main sponsors of the UEFA Champions League to return a proportion of the tickets they have received for the Champions League final to the pot for supporters of both clubs.
“We ask Nissan, Playstation, Gazprom, PepsiCo, Banco Santander, Mastercard, Heineken and Expedia Group to help redress the balance in the current unfair allocation that means fans of both competing clubs receive less than 25 per cent of available tickets.

“Please do not ruin one of the biggest occasions in the club’s history by selling on your ticket and profiteering from fellow Spurs fans.
“As always, we also strongly advise fans against purchasing tickets from unofficial sources. These tickets could be invalid or counterfeit.”
There has been an increased risk of ticket touting given both Tottenham and Liverpool were allocated just 16,613 tickets for the final – despite the Wanda Metropolitano holding a maximum capacity of almost 68,000.
“As major sponsors of the UEFA Champions League, your companies appreciate the passion and dedication of the fans who follow their teams and make every game a spectacle.
“But many of those fans who have followed their club throughout this season will miss out on the biggest game of all. As will thousands more loyal supporters.

“SOS and THST believe such a gesture by the sponsors would help lift the occasion by increasing the number of passionate fans inside the stadium, and increase each brand’s standing on a global scale.
“We also ask that each sponsor lobbies UEFA to allocate tickets for future finals on a fairer, more equitable spilt that has supporters benefit.”
