According to the British media The Times, European clubs would have received a letter from the Super League promoters, in which the dangers of the Premier League were warned and denounced. According to the media, other leagues cannot compete against a league full of oligarchs with great economic muscle.
As The Sun reported: “The English Premier League (EPL) is becoming a global Super League and more than the combined net transfer spend of their continental rivals. this summer, EPL clubs spent €2.25bn, more than La Liga, Serie A, the Bundesliga and Ligue 1 combined. The Premier League offers salary costs almost double that of its nearest continental rival.
It continues by affirming and highlighting the great economic capacity of English clubs, and how this situation hinders competition in the Champions League. “Besides television revenue, the six big English clubs are owned by a billionaire investor or a state fund. The Champions League is no longer a truly open European tournament. It is increasingly dominated by English clubs and there are a few continental exceptions trying to keep up. Two of the last four finals have been all-English and only Madrid avoided a third in June. In the last five years, around 75% of the semi-finalists of the Champions League have been from England.with the few continental exceptions of PSG, Real Madrid and Bayern.
It is also noteworthy that at the time of the officialization of the Superliga, all the founding English clubs, resigned the day after the officialization of the league and they signed an agreement where if they returned to the Super League they would automatically be relegated to the Premier. This happened with political and economic interests and social pressure after the officialization of the Superliga.
