The UEFA plans to media reports a Super League
An elite Super League, the “Who is Who” of European club football together at last – this great dream of Karl-Heinz Rummenigge apparently taking shape: UEFA has the supplication of the chief of the influential Club Association ECA probably heard and is planning a new elite class as the third European Cup competition .
About this “fundamental restructuring” of European club football, which would like a revolution, told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung on Tuesday, citing UEFA circles. Accordingly, the FC Bayern, the top Spanish team FC Barcelona and Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain from France or English top clubs such as Manchester United or Manchester City to come together in a premium class. This is to stand still on the Champions and Europa League.
The discussion about this contest had progressed, it said. However, plans was neither a closed society for the selling clubs, still a tournament -. but “a luxury league with selective sporting qualifications and thereby higher attractiveness and enhanced marketing potential”
Bayern boss Rummenigge had mind games to Super League until made public in January. He would “not rule out in the play the big teams from Italy, Germany, England, Spain and France in the future,” the establishment of a league, he said then. UEFA pointed as still reluctant to regular talks and the agreement to maintain the current formats to 2018th There is “no concrete proposals” about possible changes, it said.
“The topic is located at clubs and UEFA currently in the discussion phase,” said Rummenigge now the FAZ. Michele Centenaro Rummenigge Secretary stressed a few days ago, the ECA strut under UEFA jurisdiction an “improvement of the Champions League” to.The UEFA referred to SID -request that currently “no concrete proposals on the table “subject. But According to the Interim Secretary General Theodore Theodoridis it is until the end of the year a decision on a possible restructuring of the club competitions for the period after expiration of the current agreement (2018) give
The motivation is clear. The clubs hope in a new Super League on more money. From a doubling of revenue is talk. UEFA currently pays in the Champions League almost 1.3 billion euros in premiums, the winner alone can expect 60 to 90 million euros. The additional revenue could be generated through games in Asia or North America.
To qualify for the new elite class should next sporting criteria factors such as attractiveness of associations and meanings are included in the marketing area. The national leagues should also benefit, as they would be represented by more clubs at European level. In the case of the Bundesliga could three teams in the Super League and play another seven in the Champions and Europa League.
For the Bundesliga could be a Super League, “if it is correctly implemented”, be advantageous, said DFL Chief Marketing Officer Christian Seifert last. “You could bring the club global attention with it.”
Even Bayern coach Pep Guardiola called the plans on Tuesday “interesting”. However, from an apparently not discussed elimination of the top clubs he holds nothing. “Then what about the domestic leagues?” He asked, pointing to “the culture” of the respective international football
This is likely, however, according to Rummenigge’s desire to undergo conversion -. Either way.
