The Super League is no

Who will be the 64 participants of the European Super League? The project relaunched by Florentino Pérez and Joan Laporta, after a decision by the Court of Justice of the European Union on Thursday, is struggling to convince. At least, the vast majority of major European clubs refused to join the competition. The organizers (A22 Sports Management) have no plans to launch the ESL next summer anyway.

Enough to allow promising players to present their financial guarantees, namely 15 billion euros over three seasons donated by European and American investors. And this, even though the ESL has promised to be broadcast for free via its application.
