Villarreal president Fernando Roigsaid Tuesday that he no longer believes in Super League European Union which aims to promote the real Madrid and the Barcelona and on the other hand, it defends the competition and the current models of the existing contests, both national and continental.
“I don’t see Super League, I don’t believe in it, I believe in competitionso I see well the competition we are in and the one that exists in Europe. This year it’s new – the Champions League – and we’ll see how the group stage develops, how it ends and how the qualifiers arrive,” Roig told the media at Villarreal’s Christmas toast.
Furthermore, he is also opposed to the model of Euroleague basketballconsidering that there should be “those who earn their living sporting it on the field and don’t need to have organized teams.”
“In my opinion, what needs to be improved is what we are improving: economic control, good facilities, competitive teams… if we look at what was there 15 years ago and what is there now, it has nothing to do with it. ,” he added.
Along these lines, he also emphasized the need “quarry bet”, because he is convinced that it is the clubs that make “the youth academy and Spanish football rise, it is not the federation, it is us.”
“Then there are others who can place medals, but the quarry is worked by the First and Second division clubs, which make a big effort -economically-“, he concluded.
