OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE CLUBS:

“Today 12 football clubs jointly announced an agreement competition, the Super League.

AC Milan, Arsenal, Atlético, Chelsea, Barcelona, Internazionale, Juventus, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Tottenham have all joined.

Three more clubs are expected to join as Founding Clubs before the inaugural season, which is expected to start as soon as possible.

In the future, the Founding Clubs look forward to consulting with UEFA and FIFA in order to work together".


I am still unsure what i should think about this. I am a fc bayern supporter and karl heinz rummenigge just said that he thinks that a super league is a bad idea because off the fans in the home countries of those clubs. On the other hand i don't really like the UEFA and the FIFA because they behave like they own the football and therefore i kinda want them to make this super league just to show the finger to the uefa.
I also don't know how this would work out. Would this be a competition in parallel to the uefa champions league and how many matches would those clubs play in their home leagues, or would they even be part of their home leagues.
Maybe those clubs just want to make pressure onto the uefa to get a better deal for the next champions league negotiation round.
