Champions League organiser Uefa is finalising on how English supporters can get express Russian visas.

More than 42,000 fans will travel to Russia .

Hours after United booked their place in the final with a 1-0 win over Barcelona on Tuesday, club officials confirmed that fans planning to travel to Moscow will find it easier than normal to get a visa.

United secretary Ken Ramsden said supporters travelling on charter flights approved by the club will be eligible for special arrangements, though they too await specific details.

We reassure all the fans intending to support their teams in Moscow that despite an extremely tight time-frame their visa applications will be duly processed

Mayor of Moscow, Yuri Luzkhov, has also suggested that the Russian Embassy and relevant authorities will make it easier for fans to get visas to travel to Moscow.

There are unconfirmed reports that supporters may not need a visa if they possess a valid match ticket and passport.
