'The rich stealing what the people created' - Herrera and Ozil hit out at Super League proposals

Ander Herrera has hit out at the Super League plans that his employers at Paris Saint-Germain oppose, with the former Manchester United midfielder accusing "the rich" of tarnishing "the best most beautiful sport on the planet".

It has been revealed that a group of elite European clubs are planning to form their own breakaway tournament that will allow them to compete among themselves at the very highest level.

Six teams from England, along with three from Spain and as many from Italy, have signed up to the proposals, but PSG have joined forces with the likes of Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in steering well clear of a controversial and potentially damaging project.
