Chief executive David Gill has admitted Manchester United need 100,000 Champions League Final tickets to satisfy the demand from fans.
The Premier League leaders, who have again been confirmed by Forbes Magazine as the richest football club in the world worth £0.9billion, booked their place in the final against Chelsea in Moscow on May 21 thanks to their two-legged semi-final success against Barcelona.
United have been allocated just 21,000 tickets and Gill has revealed that there will be a vast number of disappointed supporters.
"Our allocation is just over 21,000 tickets and with season ticket holders, box holders and other internal usage, it is a difficult process," he told MUTV.
"We could sell well over 100,000 tickets for this final, so there will be a lot of disappointed people."
Gill has also moved to reassure fans who receive tickets that there will be no problem with travel visas necessary to enter Russia.
He added: "The visa issue has been there for a while," he continued.
"We had discussions with UEFA and the local organising committee along with the other semi-finalists.
"If you are on an organised trip, your ticket will be your visa.
"The actual specifics and fine details will be addressed in the next day or so and then we will communicate with the fans.
"Everyone in UEFA from (president) Michel Platini to the local organising committee recognise in order for it to be a showcase, which it clearly will be, you have to ease entry into the country while not totally doing away with what the Russian authorities require."
