FC Barcelona has put tickets on sale for the most anticipated match of the league season: the Clásico. A meeting that It will be held on October 25 and that has begun by setting a priority purchase for members before giving way to the general public. As reported by Onda Cero journalist Alfredo Martínez, the sale process has started with the indignation of the fans, since it is probably about the most expensive prices in the history of Spanish football.

In addition, Barça has implemented a “dynamic pricing” system that will cause the price of tickets is going up with the passing of the hours as their demand increases. The price table, as reported by Alfredo Martínez, is broken down as follows:
