I guess they'd rather stay in EUFA and compete in the new Champions League where finishing 9th or 24th place will be ok cos it still guarantees a chance to qualify to playoffs than go to the ESL to compete with the big clubs 🤔 Ok, Bayern, guess we'll see you in the ESL in a few years after Adidas, Audi and Qatar Airways decide to not renew the sponsorship with the club cos nobody's watching the Champions League with Sassuolo, Granada and Leeds United

Rummenigge is one of the more intelligent people in football currently, and he's staying with his feet on the ground in this case as well. It is so refreshing to see a big club thinking about the broad football interest in general, talking about reducing costs, salaries and fees instead of increasing them.
Bundesliga has the 50%+1 vote rules anyway, fans there have a big saying about the direction their club is taking so I don't see Bayern joining the Superleague in current time even if their management wanted them to. Germany's football model is by far the best and we should be taking examples from them instead of predicting their doom.
