Terrified fans fear European Super League is about to return after European Court of Justice ruling
FOOTBALL fans fear a European Super League is on the way following a ruling by the European Court of Justice.
The court has determined Fifa and Uefa acted against competition law when they blocked the formation of a European Super League in 2021.

Twelve of Europe’s biggest clubs proposed the formation of a European Super League two years ago.
The proposal was met with significant backlash as fans across the continent protested the idea.
Premier League clubs pulled out one by one following the visceral reaction from fans, who now fear the Super League could be introduced after all.
One supporter reacted to the court ruling saying: “RIP football as we know it ”
Another added: “Football is about to be ruined then…”
A third wrote: “We the fans still don’t want that shoddy league.”
And another commented: “Super league here we go.”
However, English football fans may not need to be concerned as Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his government have promised to stop clubs from joining new competitions that would kill off the domestic game.

But conspirators Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus are refusing to give up on their breakaway project despite it crashing and burning inside 48 hours two years ago.
The latest idea put forward was for up to 80 clubs to leave Uefa to form a new competition.
But that would NOT include any Premier League clubs, with Madrid-based sports marketing firm A22 using the success of English football as a justification for the new tournament.
