The European Super League could make a return in the foreseeable future, with A22 Sports Management being appointed to organise the league. Moreover, Bern Reichart has been appointed as the new CEO of the proposed competition.
As of right now, the company is in a legal battle with UEFA in the European Court of Justice. There are two outcomes to this – UEFA either gets to sanction the three clubs (Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus) or the court rules that the European Super League can continue unhindered.

“The initial goal will be to initiate dialogue with a diverse group of interested parties in football, including clubs, players, trainers, fans, media and political officials. The objective is to facilitate the development of a sustainable sports model for European club competitions that reflect mutual interests and the wide range of fans and the general football community”, the statement read.
“The current situation of European football is characterized by a series of challenges that will not be solved by themselves.
The presidents of Real Madrid,FC Barcelona, and the President of Juventus have recently presented their points of view on the problems they are facing with the current Champions League model.
I believe that they are raising the correct questions and personally I am willing to listen to different voices so that the European football community can find the appropriate answers together. The game that we all love will benefit from honest and open dialogue, free of restrictions, about a brighter future through a serious reform”, Reichart said in the statement.
