For PSG president Al Khelaifi, however, there are no taboos, as reiterated yesterday at the end of the ECA meeting: “If they stop doing what I consider to be a stupid project they will always be welcome.” A clear message, therefore, to return to the Eca family which, in close collaboration with UEFA, rejected the assault of the private Super League, aimed at creating a sort of closed transnational championship, where only the big teams had sporting and above all economic guarantees. A plan orchestrated by Real Madrid and Juventus, with the support of Barcelona, the only clubs left after the fans forced the main English clubs to withdraw, like other Italian teams, including the Milanese. However, Al Khelaifi’s opening was not taken up by the Turin club: “Juventus – the Juventus press service informed the Reuters agency – is not evaluating the possibility of returning to the ECA for the moment”. At least until the ruling of the European Court of Justice which on 21 December will have to express its opinion on the monopolies of UEFA and FIFA in the organization of sports competitions.
