There is a significant news that has been made regarding the European Super League by the president of FC Barcelona. Juan Laporta asserts that there are already fifteen other clubs that are interested in competing in the most recent football competition happening anywhere in the world.
An announcement of critical importance concerning the European Super League! According to Juan Laporta, fifteen additional clubs are interested in taking part.
On El Mon, which is broadcast on the Spanish channel RAC 1, the President of Barcelona appeared as a special guest. An announcement of significant importance about the European Super League was made by the Spaniard. According to Juan Laporta, fifteen different clubs are interested in taking part in a new competition that is anticipated to be held in the world of football.
The Spanish player admitted that he has the approval of all of the teams that were named, and that the European Super League may begin, most likely, during the season that will take place in 2025 through 2026. According to the announcement made by Juan Laporta, there would be no participation from the Premier League teams Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain in the league.
“It is a significant step forward in order to ensure the continuation of football; we do not have any more time to waste.” It would be preferable to have a league with sixteen teams, and we do not require the English because they are currently competing in their Super League.
Inter, Milan, Napoli, and Roma are the Italian teams that would be included in this list, in addition to Barcelona and Madrid. In addition, there are French teams like as Marseille, as well as three Portuguese teams, Sporting, Benfica, and FC Porto, all of whom would be thrilled to participate. Additionally, there are the teams from the Netherlands, namely Ajax, Feyenoord, and PSV, as well as the Belgian teams FC Bruges and Anderlecht.
Any La Liga team, with the exception of Atletico, is welcome. In a similar vein, Paris Saint-Germain will not be invited because its president is the head of UEFA. According to Juan Laporta, a competition with sixteen teams would be preferable.
“The English are not welcome in the European Super League”
Despite the fact that a number of the most prominent clubs in the Premier League had expressed interest in participating in the competition that was being promoted by Juan Laporta and Florentino Perez, it appears that they have now taken a step back. Not wanting to upset their fans or get into conflict with UEFA, the English have made the decision to not participate in the Europa League. This decision was made because they do not want to offend their followers. Juan Laporta used an illustration from the past to illustrate the significant shift that is exhibiting certain indications of occurring in European football.
The fact that English clubs already have their own Super League does not bother me, and I do not experience any discomfort in the absence of English clubs. You submit a proposition to a club, and the club that just takes part will be awarded one hundred million euros. Even if you were to win the current Champions League, you wouldn’t be able to afford that amount.
This situation brings to mind the European Champions Cup that took place in the year 1955. A very small number of clubs took part, and as a result, it evolved into the most prestigious competition in Europe. Juan Laporta continued by saying, “That is exactly what we intend to do with the new Super League.”
As Roma, the first team to refute Juan Laporta’s declaration, was quoted as saying, “As publicly stated a few hours after the European Court of Justice decision on the Super League case, AS Roma reiterates that it does not support any project related to the so-called Super League.”
“The club also declares that it has never changed its position on this matter, nor has it entered into discussions about a different path than the clubs working together through the ECA in partnership and strong collaboration with UEFA and FIFA,” the statement from the Italian club reads. “The club has never changed its position on this matter.” Following the announcement, both AS Roma and Feyenoord responded by denying the assertion made by Juan Laporta.
When it comes to La Porta’s crew, however, the events that are taking place are not being kept in the background. To put it simply, Barcelona is not in the finest shape it has been in for a considerable amount of time.
The president of Barcelona, Joan Laporta, has responded to criticisms leveled by Real Madrid following yet another incident in the French league. The officials’ actions during the Whites’ encounter against Almeria, in which there were several questionable decisions that helped Real earn a 3-2 draw, were the subject of his statement. He said that several of these rulings helped Real achieve a tie. Predictions for live betting were correct though.
The behavior that occurred during the match against Almeria was disgraceful, and everyone witnessed it. What they claim is that the referees are giving Barcelona an advantage, and I am quite furious about that,” Laporta added.
Additionally, he addressed the incident involving Negreira, saying, “We pay for referee reports, but we do not pay referees itself.” I am not directly acquainted with Negreira. He was the one who initiated that. We are all familiar with him. As a judicial and technical advisor, he was a consultant. We are unable to provide evidence that we bought judges. I am a firm believer in the concept of justice and we shall be vindicated. Being real is acting in a manner that is cynical and unacceptable. At the request of Real Madrid, Judge Joaquín Aguirre took the decision to withhold the process of investigation.
The behavior that Real’s club TV is exhibiting is a scandal. I am at a loss to comprehend how people could possibly act in such a manner if they possess any respect at all. It is imperative that the refereeing committee and the federation take action,” he went on to say.
For as long as I can remember, I have been opposed to video assistant referees because they eliminate spontaneity. Imagine that five or six judges might make the same error if just one of them does. Ineffective usage of video assistant referees is causing referees to suffer. According to the Catalan president, Real Madrid is one of the teams that is most favored by the video assistant referee.
Laporta also made a comment regarding the Superleague project, which he feels is still in the works: “We will start the Superleague in 2024/2025 or 2025/2026.” We would be delighted to have teams from England participate. Even though they have chosen not to participate, he stated that the most prominent Italian clubs are still a part of the project. Barcelona, Real, Inter, Milan, Napoli, Roma, Marseille, an additional three Dutch teams, Bruges, and Anderlecht are the teams that are currently competing in the Super League. In 1955, the European Champions Cup consisted of only sixteen or eighteen teams, but since then, it has grown to become the most prestigious tournament,” he continued.
The reason for Barcelona’s injuries is revealed by Chavi, who also takes a scathing stance toward Real Madrid.
During his pre-match news conference against Alaves, Barcelona coach Chavi Hernandez expressed his outrage toward Real Madrid’s club TV and blamed the run of injuries that have been occurring in their squad at the present on the busy schedule that the Catalans have been following because of their hectic schedule. Another comment he made was regarding his decision to step down from his coaching position at the conclusion of the current season.
“The opponent is highly intense and has won its past three games in La Liga, so this game is going to be challenging for us. It is Garcia Plaza who is displaying his aggression toward them. When we meet them, they are at their best, and when they are at home, they give even more of themselves. It is necessary for us to obtain the three points in order to proceed with our ascent in the standings. As about our wounds? We believe that the number of our travels has accumulated to an excessive degree. In a single month, we played ten games. In every way imaginable, our schedule was the worst. In the entire world, there was no other squad that had a schedule like that. During the course of the season, we did not suffer a significant number of injuries. Not only did we suffer from two hernias, but we also had to deal with situations that were painful for us. It was our responsibility because we did not get enough rest to do well in the competition.
We are going to have to leave if we are unable to accomplish the aims. This is what the president has stated, and it is expected that the same thing will occur with the next coach. Upon my arrival, we had already accomplished the goal, and we even had the opportunity to compete for the championship. Unfortunately, the third season did not live up to the expectations that were set for it. The second season was pretty nice. Even if I am not an exception, I am likewise dependent on the outcomes. I have been saying the same thing for the past month and a half, and that is the reason why I have made the decision to leave. It is not because of the media or my mental health that I am quitting; rather, it is because we are not fulfilling the targets and expectations that that have been set.
I consider myself to be a “cooler,” and I believe that the team should make a change in its path for the sake of the club. I have witnessed coaches, particularly those who won the Champions League, torment themselves and plot their departure. Through my connection with Luis Aragonés, I have developed a strong bond. Additionally, he ended up winning a European Championship despite the fact that his lynching was both harsh and unfair. Despite the fact that I have been subjected to criticism from the very beginning, I have decided not to leave. Despite the fact that I disagree with them, this is Barcelona. The group requires a shift in their course of action.
The fact that Real Madrid TV is putting pressure on the referees who are conditioned is something that I find to be quite unacceptable. The Negreira case did not appear to be of any assistance either, but we must contend with it. I wholeheartedly concur with what our president has spoken. It is impossible for us to deceive the Barcelona players that this is not the case. It is surprising to me that the outrage that Real Madrid’s club TV does is permitted, despite the fact that I am neither the president of the federation nor of La Liga. At this point, the tournament is being manipulated in this manner. Repeatedly, it occurs match after match. The blind man is able to see that. Additionally, Diego Simeone has stated that we are not fools. Chavi stated that although everyone is aware of it, it is the media that is responsible for making it public.
