The slaps of the European Super League they do not stop. The English Federation (FA) announced that, if the tournament devised by Florentino Pérez takes place, punish Premier League clubs that participate with a ban on signing foreign footballers.
It should be noted that the governing body of English football managed, before the creation of this particular competition was announced, that the clubs that make up the ‘Big Six’ (Man. United, Man. City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal y Tottenham) take a step back and do it publicly.
The harsh warning was issued by Mark Bullingham, FA Executive Director, who noted that should the Super League go ahead, will work in conjunction with the Home Office to deny work permits to non-UK players and above all, with the power they have after Brexit.
“We can modify some aspects of the visa system to make sure that people only get visas from the contests that we accredit. So you can’t attract foreign talent to play in competitions that we don’t regulate. They cannot bring foreigners to play the Super League ”, stressed Bullingham.
In turn, the English director explained that from now on “we will make sure that our rule book is stricter. The Premier League is doing the same. We are working on some adjustments ”.
“There is a government legislation to avoid the Super League. From the beginning we were very clear that we were opposed and that we were going to use our regulations to stop her. The clubs were definitely going to take an anti-competitive legal position on this. That is what we wanted the government to do and they committed very quickly, “concluded Mark Bullingham.
