Twelve teams sought to break away from the UEFA Champions League and form their own European Super League a few months ago, in order to gain a larger share of the financial pie.
While some have left the initiative due to fan protests, FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Juventus FC have remained.
In an interview with Der Spiegel (via Canal Supporters), UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin noted how amusing it is that these three teams want to start their own league while participating in the Champions League this season. He went on to say that the heads of these organizations are inept.
“I would not mind if they left. It is very funny that they want to create a new competition and at the same time want to play the Champions League this season,” Ceferin said. “All three clubs have managers who are simply incompetent. These guys tried to kill football.”
“Florentino Perez laments and says the club can only survive with a Super League and then try to sign Kylian Mbappé for €180-million. Financial fair play? In the future, we want to talk about competitive balance rather than fair play.”
