Real Madrid, Juve and Barca not giving up on disputed Super League

The main advocates of the Super League are not giving up. Florentino Perez, Andrea Agnelli and Joan Laporta are defending the project. A court decision in 2023 will be crucial in determining the future of this project, which was cancelled in 2021. The only clubs that have tried to keep alive a league that would be direct competition for the Champions League is Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus.

UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin responded to Perez's proposal. Agnelli reaffirmed his "commitment" to the project. Barcelona presented their accounts and Eduard Romeu, their financial vice-president, said considering the Super League again would be positive. Laporta said he would prefer an open Super league with meritocracy.

UEFA and the European Commission announced the renewal of their cooperation agreement until 2025. UEFA announced a sweeping overhaul of the Champions League in May to start in 2024. The TV rights will be sold for a projected $14.6 billion for three years. Sales of new format in the U.S. are up 150%. In the UK and France, not so much. Paris Saint-Germain President Nasser Al-Khelaifi is against the Super League.
