Tickets for the clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid in the other semifinal are still commanding an enormous fee. As of Sunday afternoon, the cheapest available tickets are $195.15 (£142.91), but it’s possible that prices drop before the match kicks off on July 9.

Chukwuemeka still has three years left on his contract and it is said Chelsea will not sell for below his £40m release clause. That may prove too step for the Bundesliga side who may offer to take the player back on loan first, potentially with an option or obligation to buy, and it is reported that talks over a transfer actually began back in May.

Cole Palmer helped Chelsea get the best of Palmeiras at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on Friday, July 4 to advance to the semifinals. Malo Gusto also played a role in the victory, having his shot bounce off the opposing goalkeeper, Weverton Pereira da Silva, to create an own goal situation and take the 2-1 lead.
