Real Madrid and Barcelona continue to drive the idea of the European Super League, although this continues to cause controversy. The controversial competition was frustrated in his first attempt four years ago, but the two league giants are determined to make sure it comes to fruition.
However, the Super League has received many negative comments, and one of her greatest critics is the president of the League, Javier Tebas. He spoke again against him during an interview with El Pais (through relief), during which he particularly addressed the head of Real Madrid Florentino Pérez.
“The first thing is to make it very clear who is behind him, which seems to never mean: it is Florentino Pérez. We have to show our faces. The second thing is not serious for us to have three formats in three years. We cannot talk about saving football, as President Pérez said, and doing this. Nor is it very insertious to present a format that does not speak of governance. Or the television model: one day everything is free, another day is hybrid, another day I don’t know what it is … this looks like a circus.
“It’s very serious. If it were viable, which is not viable. That hurts because he imagines: during the week, free football. And on the weekend, the National League paid football? Do you think that free football would be viable in Spain? Isn’t that so? I am sure it does devastating damage. Rather than saving football, that mission that it seems that Real Madrid came to destroy it. ”
A22 is the company that is now in charge of the Super League, and have presented multiple proposals for competition in the last 12 months. They, like Real Madrid and Barcelona, remain sure that their dreams will become a reality at some point, although that seems difficult.
