    Abstract:
    This study examines the growing tension between local fan accessibility and commercial football tourism in European club football. As elite clubs become global tourist attractions, concerns have emerged regarding how an increase in international fans affect traditional supporter experiences, ticket pricing, and stadium atmosphere. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research integrates qualitative insights from three live match observations with quantitative data from 64 survey respondents
