From winners to losers in a few hours: When the European Court of Justice legally cleared the way for an international Super League on Thursday morning, supporters were happy. “A historic day,” exults Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez (76). Bernd Reichert, CEO of sports agency A22, which wants to organize and market the Super League, even becomes pathetic: “Football is free!”
From the point of view of Pérez and Co. it’s just stupid: since then it’s been raining rejections every minute. From the big players, without whom “The Super League” cannot be implemented.
Manchester City, Liverpool, Paris St. Germain, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Bayern Munich, Dortmund, AS Roma, Inter Milan and Tottenham (and many others) make it clear: not with us! It prompted UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin (56) to say smugly: “The Super League developers discovered a package under the Christmas tree and started celebrating. Until they realized when they unpacked that there was nothing inside. Let’s call it a zombie competition.”
The presented model of a three-tiered Super League suggests permeability from bottom to top. In practice, however, the Star League, the highest level, is virtually a closed society. For clubs from small football countries such as Switzerland, duels such as the one this autumn between YB and Manchester City are hardly possible.
Blick asked the currently six best clubs from the Swiss Super League and FC Basel what they thought of the European Super League. There was only a statement from YB, the FCZ and Luzern.
In Bern, the positioning is clear: “The BSC Young Boys reaffirms its position that a healthy future in European club football can only be achieved through the cooperation of the clubs through the ECA (Representation of the interests of European clubs; editor) can be achieved in close cooperation with UEFA and FIFA. We continue to strictly reject the so-called Super League project.”
FCZ chairman Ancillo Canepa does not mince words: “The Super League project is absurd, alien and hopeless. The fact that some selfish club presidents have lost their intellectual thread is their problem. I have absolutely no fear that this crazy idea could become a reality.”
From Central Switzerland it says: “FC Luzern clearly believes that participation in European competitions must be earned and earned through success in the domestic competitions. A Super League, as is currently being discussed, cannot therefore be in the interests of Swiss football and its fans.”
