Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte extra tickets released for Wembley title fight

5000 extra tickets are being sold for Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte after seats sold out quickly yesterday. The tickets being sold include coach travel from locations around the country and must be bought as a package.

It comes after thousands of tickets had appeared on resale websites for extortionate prices. Around 200,000 attempted to buy a seat at Wembley Stadium with the queue growing as large as 150,000 at one point.

And with tens of thousands more attempting to buy tickets many fans were inevitably disappointed with Wembley's capacity being only 90,000 - but tickets have been re-released and are now available on Ticketmaster.

Wednesday saw the race for tickets begin when they had gone on sale on midday - a day after Fury held a press conference with Whyte refusing to show up. Fury later claimed all 90,000 tickets were snapped up within hours, celebrating on his social media platforms as he stated: "This is for all the people who bought tickets for Wembley and made it a sell-out; I salute them."

Ticketmaster received criticism throughout the day as some thought that it had been their lucky day, making it to the ticket section before choosing their seats and preparing to pay hundreds to confirm their spots. However, their still had been hurdles from this point as some had been booted out of the section as they attempted to pay for their seats.

But speaking on Ariel Helwani's YouTube show yesterday, Fury confirmed that Frank Warren had hoped to secure more tickets after speaking with London Councils, and it looks like that has been granted with the release of 5,000 more seats.
