The Super League officially announced on the 19th (Korean time) and announced that “12 European teams gathered today and decided to establish a new weekday tournament organized by the club, the Super League.”
The European Super League is expected to bring a cataclysm to the European football world. First of all, a total of 12 teams announced their participation. AC Milan, Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Barcelona, Inter Milan, Juventus, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur. And it is known that three additional clubs will participate.
Confrontation with the Champions League and Europa League is inevitable. If the Super League is launched during the week, these clubs have no reason to join the Champions League. For this reason, it is struggling with the European Football Federation (UEFA). The backlash from the national league is also strong.
Not only that, but also footballers and fans are in a position to oppose the launch of the Super League. This is because the meaning of the Champions League and Europa League is obscured, and the soccer world can only revolve around specific teams. In the midst of this, Manchester United Legend Ferdinand expressed their opposition to the launch of the Super League.
“This is a war against football. It’s a shame. I’m opposed to everything related to the Super League. The Super League is all about money. The rich get richer, and they don’t,” Ferdinand told British’BT Sports’. They aren’t even considered. It’s purely for business purposes,” he said.
