The European Super League that has drawn opposition from football’s governing bodies of FIFA and UEFA is “very much alive” according to Bernd Reichart, the CEO of A22 Sports Management.
The plans for the potential Super League first surfaced in April 2021 when it was announced that 12 elite European clubs were planning to breakaway and form their own league. Within 48 hours of the news breaking, EPL clubs elected to pull out of the plans due to the public backlash that they received for their decisions.
The European Super League is now aiming for a 2025 launch that is headlined by Real Madrid, Juventus and Barcelona who to date have not withdrawn their interest.
