La Liga: Espanyol and Leganes to offer free 2020/2021 season tickets to fans

La Liga clubs, Espanyol and Leganes, have agreed to hand free tickets to their fans  holding current season tickets.

The Spanish top-flight is set to resume in June after being suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic.

With the two teams struggling at the bottom of the standings, it is possible that one or both sides could be playing in the second division next season.

“Leganes will automatically renew all its season ticket holders for the next season,’’ said a statement from the club, based in the satellite city of the same name just outside Madrid.

“Taking into account the implications that COVID-19 has brought to the country and specially the city of Leganes, the club wants to compensate its fans and season ticket holders.’’

Barcelona side, Espanyol said that in addition to offering its 27,833 season ticket holders free 2020-2021 passes, they would also reimburse 20 per cent of the value of their current season ticket to account for the matches they will miss.

Earlier this month, Getafe became the first Spanish top-flight club to offer season ticket holders free passes for the following campaign.
