Sunday night’s announcement about creating one European Super League by the twelve founding teams and the well-known response of football organizations in the old continent, such as UEFA and FIFA Announcing his disagreement and possible sanctions for those participating in the megaproject, he only confirmed that, speaking in terms of boxing, he had officially started the long-distance fight between the two sides.
“The fight broke out between the twelve strongest teams in Europe against UEFA and FIFA as an ally. We are in trouble in the world of football, “he said Hernan Pereyra The first edition of this week’s podcast begins “It’s like that”. “We are on the verge of a change that can mark a before and an after in the history of this sport and that can lead to changes even in world championships,” said the driver of the cycle to explain that this is what formed 12 strong teams. from Europe with the launch of this new competition.
After explaining how the same thing will be, which teams will include the form of the tournament in question, Pereyra focused on giving his opinion on the subject saying that “the twelve strong ones were cut off from the rest and formed their own competition with this Super League. The strongest three in Spain (Real Madrid, Atlético Madrid and Barcelona), three in Italy (Juventus, Milan and Inter) and 6 in England (Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea) are its founders say they will have 3 guests and 5 teams that will qualify through their own leagues to reach 20 in total “, he mentioned.
“UEFA is shaking its head and is desperate like FIFA,” Pereyra said, adding that in cash, the champion will receive 400 million euros against the 120 he is currently receiving in the Champions League. FIFA has disapproved of the model in a statement saying it is in favor of a fair redistribution of revenue, while UEFA has warned that it will take both judicial and sporting action to the point where those who play this competition they will not be able to be part at local, European or global level and the participating players will not be allowed to be part of the selection of their respective countries “, he explained.
“Although there are things I like, there are others I don’t like. Playing every week is like having Champions every week. I like that, but from there to that it’s complicated, because the federations are against it. The attraction of seeing the strongest in Europe is very big and only two important teams would be missing, such as Bayern Munich and PSG “, considered the host of” Es Así y Punto “.
Another issue that Pereyra mentioned in his analysis is the issue of the power that UEFA and FIFA would lose. “In a way, I enjoy this very possibility, because both organizations have gained so much power over the years that it allows them to manage their wealth for their own good, that leaders, who travel in private jets, stop at hotels. five-star with spectacular travel expenses. And what do I give to the footballer? “, Stressed the
“Something was wrong with UEFA and FIFA, whose leaders are treated like kings, to bring the situation to this point,” Pereyra added. “In this way, many leaders have abused their power, so it is good to stop the ball as happened with the FIFA goal. But this problem also has its bad side and it is necessary to make it known “.
“It simply came to our notice then. If today Atlético Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid have more teams than the rest of LaLiga and at the top they will receive spectacular prizes because they played this Superliga and the rest will continue in misfortune, we are wrong because football will be divided much more. But in this way, it will help the rich to consolidate more and teams like Getafe, to set an example, cannot compete with them. This is not good”.
Finally, the ESPN analyst indicated that “we are in a very complicated moment. We hope that all this marks a before and after, but they are positive for football. I hope it will be. That this will rearrange the chips and open many eyes because football needed a change “.
“Now the haul has been opened and we will have to be careful, because the consequences can also be very serious. Can you imagine a World Cup without the main figures of these teams? . In this way, the World Cup will be a fiasco with all the big weakened teams. . Be careful because the tournament can look very nice, but also the shot can give back “, he concluded.
Note: edition of “So is the period ‘, includes Pereyra’s opinion on 15 a Liga MX and the title to win Barcelona King’s Cup.
