El Clasico tickets could fetch £2,000

Spectators for this weekend's El Clasico at the Bernabeu are reportedly prepared to pay up to £2,000 for a single match ticket.

The clash in the Spanish capital on Saturday will be the first time that Real Madrid and Barcelona have met in the 2015-16 season.

In a statement, the CEO of online ticket platform Ticketbis claimed that the average price for a single ticket was around £460, but according to AS, supporters are willing to pay out almost £2,000 for high-end tickets in the VIP area.

"At the moment we're registering requests from fans from all over the planet and the average price for a ticket for the Clasico is 659 euros (£462)," said Ander Michelena.

Barcelona will enter the showpiece event boasting a three-point lead over Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga table.
