Despite the fact that the European Union Court of Justice ruled in favor of the Super League, a number of football teams have voiced their opposition to the proposal.
By preventing the formation of a Super League in 2021, the European Union Court of Justice (ECoJ) ruled that the European Union Football Association (UEFA) and the Federation of International Football Associations (FIFA) had violated European competition law. At the same time, the European Court of Justice (ECoJ) reaffirmed that neither the European Union Football Association (UEFA) nor the Federation of International Football Associations (FIFA) have the authority to impose fines on member clubs or those clubs who want to participate in the event.
A club competition can be formed, and the Super League cannot be discriminated against in any way. “UEFA does not have exclusive control over football,” the statement reads. According to the statement released by the European Court of Justice (ECoJ), clubs have the ability to determine their own future.
Bayern, Man Utd refuse Super League.
On the other hand, Super League was rapidly confronted with competition from a number of teams. United Football Club has indicated that their position has not changed. Maintaining our complete commitment to taking part in UEFA competitions and actively collaborating with UEFA, the Premier League, and the clubs in order to continue expanding the sport in Europe is something that we maintain.
The announcement was made promptly by Bayern Munich, which stated, “Bayern’s door to the European Super League is still closed.” A tournament that is unexpectedly organized will have an effect on the order of the domestic tournament as well as the situation in football across the entirety of Europe.
Both Dortmund and Bayern were, in point of fact, not included in the Super League idea from the very beginning. For the purpose of preventing the team from being taken over by foreign powers, a club in Germany will not have the right to self-determination and will instead be required to go via the supporters in accordance with the 50+1 rule. Because of this, there is a very low probability that German clubs will be able to compete in the Super League.
While everything was going on, Paris Saint-Germain, who has a close relationship with both UEFA and FIFA, also declined to attend. A further statement was made by AS Roma, stating that it is not connected to the project that was started by Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Juventus.
Super League continues to be opposed.
The Premier League also announced: “Today’s decision from the Court does not mean we confirm the existence of the Super League. And the Premier League continues to reject any such notion.
The Premier League reiterates its commitment to the clear principles of open competition that underpin the success of domestic and international club competitions.”
Super League was first introduced in 2021. At that time, the 12 original founding clubs included Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Inter, AC Milan, Juventus with Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and Manchester City.
This tournament gathering a series of top European teams is planned to compete with or replace the Champions League, in order to reduce UEFA’s monopoly. However, most withdrew from the project and now only Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus remain.
The new Super League project is expected to have many changes compared to the original model in 2021. About 60 to 80 top European clubs will have the opportunity to participate, divided into many different divisions, instead of just limited capacity. playing for about 15-20 big teams like two years ago.
