The Super League sends letters to UEFA and FIFA with a new format awaiting recognition

The Super League has promised time and time again that the competition is still in process and on Tuesday it took another step so that it can be played. Recent reports have detailed that the competition could still take place in the 2025-26 season and are seeking official recognition.

A22, the organizers of the Super League, have sent letters to the European Commission, UEFA and FIFA, including a 20-page document detailing the format of the competition. A ruling by the European Court legally supports them, denoting that UEFA and FIFA cannot monopolize the continental competition, and are now seeking official recognition from football’s governing bodies.

The new format, renamed ‘UNIFY League’, will continue with the free streaming format of the competition, financing the broadcast with advertising. It would include 92 teams in four divisions, the first two with 16 teams each and the last two with 32 teams. Entry into these leagues would be dictated by league position.

Qualification was originally one of the key points of disagreement with the initial idea, which would have been based on European history and promotion or relegation rather than league position. It is not yet clear how the league positions will be divided between the leagues. A22 and CEO Bernd Reichart had a collectively positive response: around 60 teams out of 100 consulted were open to the idea.
