The announcement of the formation of a new super league by some of the top clubs in European football has caused a stir in the international sports world. It is considered a threat to the original league. After the announcement on Monday, veterans from all over the world waged a campaign against the new league. But firstly FIFA, the apex body of world football, took a very tough stand on this. FIFA President Gianni Efetino on Tuesday warned the member club involved in the establishment of the league to bear the consequences.
The Champions Football Championship began in 1955 68 years ago with the European institution standing Matriux (Switzerland). FIFA chief Ifentino gave his full support at the conference of Uefa, the governing body of European football, saying, "It is our job to defend the model of European sport." Therefore, if someone decides to go on his new path, he will have to suffer the consequences as well. They will be responsible for their choice.
The club announcing the new league includes six clubs from England and three each from Spain and Italy. These are Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur (from England), Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Rial Madrid (from Spain), Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan (from Italy). These clubs have signed the league's agreement. It includes a breathtaking offer for the founding members along with a guarantee of billions of dollars.
Why different leagues? Till now, for the prestigious Champions League, every team has to qualify after a tough competition in the national championship every year. Much longer group encounters take place before that or reach the knockout level. At the same time, he will be guaranteed a place every year for the founding members in the Super League. This will not preclude qualification.
Uefa president Alexander Seffrin has appealed to clubs in the Super League to respect the decision for fans to revisit the decision and change their decision. He also criticized the group of six clubs in England formed by American billionaires, Middle Eastern shahs and Russian moneylenders. "All of you are making a huge mistake," Seferin said at the Uefa general meeting. One would call it greed, others would call it the ignorance, ignorance of England's club culture, it did not matter. The biggest thing is that you still have time to change your mind and decision. The mistake is a human behaviour.
