The last few days have seen sensational implications for the world of sport and especially for the world of football. In a few hours 12 clubs first created and then practically canceled the European Soccer Super League, a new competition that would have seen 12 teams playing by right and without a sporting title every year; there have been protests all over the world, from England to Italy and the teams have been forced to cancel the tournament.
In the last hours the main promoter of the whole event, the chairman of Real Madrid CF Florentino Perez has released important statements that do not close the Superlega but far from it. Here are the words of him in El Larguero, program on Cadena Ser.
He said: "Am I the president of Real Madrid and the European Super League? No no, I am the president of Real Madrid. And I have to say, that's okay. Last night was a really long night, we were together until one o'clock. I am sad and disappointed. We have been working on this Superlega project for three years to fight against the economic situation we are going through.
La Liga is untouchable, where you have to earn some money is in midweek matches and the Champions League format is outdated, old and interesting only starting with the quarter-finals. First there is no interest. We are all happy that teams from some countries can face great teams. But when you find yourself in a situation like this. Last season we lost 600 million between the 12 clubs in the Super League.
Real Madrid chairman: "People would watch match like Roger Federer vs Nadal"This format does not work and it occurred to us to create a format in which, without showing off, we would play the most important teams in Europe. We have done the math and we have seen that much more money can be made. So that the big ones do not lose and with solidarity. All of these teams have 2 billion out of four billion fans who like football. I have never seen such aggression, it was something orchestrated in my opinion and it surprised us all.
When we broke the news, we asked to see the UEFA and FIFA president. They didn't answer us. In 20 years I haven't seen this aggression in my life. Threats, insults, as if we had killed football."
On the subject, Perez used tennis as a yardstick and spoke about two tennis legends, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal (among other great Real Madrid fans). Here are the strong statements of him: "This is a pyramid. If there is money at the top, and I can say it because Real Madrid is not mine and belongs to its members ... If there is money at the top, it comes at the bottom. If Federer doesn't play against Nadal at the top, well, to see Nadal against number 80 in the ranking, people don't go."
