Bernd Reichart, CEO of A22, promoter of the league, presents a decalogue for the creation of a new football league outside UEFA
The Super League continues its efforts to turn world football upside down and this time wanted to put a twist on this old idea of Florentino Pérez that would allow the most powerful clubs to at least triple their current income. Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus are the visible faces of this project now promoted by the company A22 Sportsmanagent. The company in charge of commercial development specializing in sports has drawn up a decalogue of new rules in which it advocates a competition in which the best clubs from the major European leagues have a place and in which sporting merit takes precedence. The text published by several European newspapers describes the basis on which he is working to redefine his project: an open tournament, less elitist than the original one, which would host between 60 and 80 teams divided into divisions that would play at least 14 matches.
Pending a ruling from the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in the coming weeks to decide whether UEFA and FIFA are abusing their dominant position as organizers of international competitions, Super League is continuing to set up a league whose other nine founding members (Atlético, Manchester City, United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham, Inter and Milan) have publicly waived to continue the adventure, but to this day have not contractually withdrawn from the project have withdrawn.
The reaction of the highest president of Spanish professional football, Javier Tebas, was strong in a message via the social network Twitter. “The Super League is the wolf that today disguises itself as grandma to try and deceive European football, but HIS nose and HIS teeth are very big,” he wrote, posting this text along with a cartoon signed by Emerson Coe in which he portrayed Super League as the wolf from Little Red Hood and the protagonist of the red hood as European football, which would be under threat.
