Re: Can two clubs owned by one person participate in the Champions League?
Please I need a confirmation on the information I recently received regarding two clubs owned by the same person not allowed to both participate in the UEFA Champions League which means that one club must have to participate and the other club not allowed to. Furthermore, I've heard that Girona FC and Manchester City are both owned by the same person. If this is the case, I'd like to know your thoughts on which club you would support in reference of the above information.
I learnt about this information regarding Manchester City and Girona being owned by an individual and as at last season, there was talks about one between both clubs not participating in the champions league, because the selection will be based on if any won their domestic league first. Manchester city won the premier League and already have a spot in the champions league ahead of Girona who finished among the top finalist in their own league.Despite owned by the same entities. Manchester City and Girona are participating in the UCL.
UEFA has cleared this problem with both of clubs have participated in UCL. I think they were relaxing the rules for the two clubs owned by same owner are able partiipating in the UCL. Everything is clear now with this.
