UEFA and the Polish authorities are finalising plans to allow 10,000 fans to attend the Europa League final in Gdansk, next month.

Sportsmail can reveal that the showpiece, due to take place at the 41,000-seat Gdansk Stadium on May 26, is now expected to be played in front of a quarter-full stadium and an announcement is due on Friday.
