This with personal tickets will not be possible to avoid, there are requirements from, among others, Uefa. Now it's up to the Swedish Football Association, says Per Engström, who is section chief at the national operational department, Noa, to SVT.

On Saturday, the Allsvenskan starts. Then, supporters with access bans can still get into the arenas through tickets purchased by other people. With personal tickets, everyone needs to identify themselves to get in.

The question of personal tickets has been discussed before. Per Engström means that there are now requirements for personal tickets in major international sports events and from international organizations, including the European Football Association (Uefa). And that the same principle must apply to the Allsvenskan.
