The president of the shipwrecked project: “We did something wrong, we could qualify the top four of each country”
As suddenly as the Super League it has gone down just as quickly, at least for the moment. The president of Real Madrid and of the same project, Florentino Perez, however, did not throw in the towel: “It is not true that it was against national championships or meritocracy, everything has been manipulated. The Super League would be the best possible way to help football out of the crisis, given that it is seriously ill . The economy of the system is sinking and we have to adapt to the times we live in. “

Almost simultaneously UEFA announced the reform of the Champions League starting from 2024: “What has been done does not solve the problem – continued Perez to As -, it is not even the best possible solution and we cannot wait that long. Something must be done for young people between 14 and 24 years because they leave football because they are bored. There are 4 billion football fans around the world and half would like the Super League. “
Then a small step back, because if the project was wrecked within a few hours, something must have gone wrong: “We have certainly done something wrong – Florentino Perez admitted in the interview -, we will make a new round and compare ideas. Maybe getting the top four from each country to participate is a solution, we’ll see, but something needs to be done. The reality is that if there are more interesting and competitive matches, more money will go to football. And this will be for everyone, not just for a few, because the national championships will be worth much more. “
