Rangers have released ticketing information for the second leg of the Europa League semi-final clash with RB Leipzig with fans set to pay £50 to attend.

The Gers have revelled in the backing of the home support during their monumental run in the competition and Ibrox will need to once more be rocking if the club stands a chance against the Germans.

The first leg is set to take place in Germany on the 28th of April before the return in Glasgow one week later on May 5th.

Rangers have confirmed the details of how to attend the game, which the club points out is the first time the Gers have hosted a semi-final second leg since the Barca Bears beat Bayern Munich in 1972.

Season ticket holders have from Wednesday 20th April until Tuesday 26th April to secure their own seat for the match.

For those who have signed up to the CCCS scheme, payment for the game will be taken on the 23rd April whilst those required to move seat due to operational reasons will be able to choose an alternative on Wednesday 27th and Thursday 28th.

After this, there will be a priority sale for MyGers members on Friday 29th April before any remaining tickets go on general sale on Tuesday 3rd May.

Tickets are £50 for adults, £38 for concessions and £30 for children.

The pricing of £50 per brief also offers Rangers a huge opportunity to capitalise on the fact it’s going to be May and the club are still in European competition.

Whilst for many the price is steep, Rangers will feel justified in using this opportunity to raise approximately £2.5m in gate receipts.

After an enormous season on the European stage, this is a sizeable extra to the Ibrox prize pot and let’s hope it’s not the end either.

If Rangers can get past RB Leipzig then the bears will be heading to Spain and namely Seville to face either West Ham or Eintracht Frankfurt.

Meanwhile, Rangers have been linked with a summer move for a Premier League international.
