Manchester City and Inter Milan fans are suffering a chaotic final few hours before the Champions League final in Istanbul.

A fire in a six-storey factory close the ground at Basaksehir was also adding to the chaos with 40 firefighters at the scene and black smoke drifting on the horizon. 

The factory makes plastic and cardboard and thick black smoke billowed from the blazing building and it could be seen by fans exiting the metro stop at the ground. 

Emerging images show City and Inter Milan fans stuck in congestion on their way from the official fan park - a short journey that has taken many over an hour.

Other footage shows fans who have given up on transport running on the side of the road past an endless stream of traffic.
