Yesterday, the Spanish club Barcelona announced its official withdrawal from the European Super League, the project that was supposed to revolutionize European football and which was also publicly supported by its local rival Real Madrid and its president, Florentino Perez.
The Catalan club said in a statement: “FC Barcelona would like to inform the public that it has officially informed the European Super League company and the clubs concerned of its withdrawal from the European Super League project.” This announcement is a new development in this file, several months after the decision of the Court of Appeal in Madrid, which confirmed that the European Football Association (UEFA) had “abused its power” by trying to prevent the establishment of this alternative competition for the Champions League in 2021.
