The Italian Aurelio De Laurentiis, president of Naples – always critical of UEFA – who accepted with full force the decision of the Court of the European Union (CJEU) to organize new competitions, this Wednesday ensured that he said in Spanish Florentino Perez, president of Real Madrid, that the idea of the Super League is “wrong” because the most important thing is the domestic leagues.
The president of Napless revealed met with Florentino in Alicante a few months ago and defined his position in the Super League project.
“I never defended the Super League, but instead I fought for the democratic nature of football and market freedom,” he explained at a press conference in Castel Volturno, the sports city of Naples.
“When I met Florentino Pérez in Alicante, I told him that he has the merit to create a trigger in the Super League. I come from cinema and no triggers no movies. Florentino already has a CJEU resolution that opens new competitions, and now a competition is being studied that starts with 5,000 million in revenue and can reach up to 100,000 million in revenue,” he said.
“However, I told him that the idea of Super League It is wrong, that we have to think of a parallel league. And if you reason like a monopoly you are antidemocratic. “The domestic leagues have priority over everything, even the national team, because they respect the fans,” he said.
