The European Super League continues to make a lot of noise and the controversy continues on an 'inclusive' model of the world of football where, thanks to this tournament, 12 clubs would have the opportunity to participate regardless of sporting results and every year. This possibility has infuriated fans from all over Europe who in various countries have revolted in the streets and have made numerous protests. In London, before the Premier League match, the fans of Chelsea, one of the 12 clubs that should have participated in the tournament, protested harshly outside the Chelsea headquarters and also in other historic cities such as Liverpool and Manchester the situation was not very different. The players themselves did not appreciate this situation, there was a meeting between the Premier League captains where all this was discussed and even the German Toni Kroos did not particularly appreciate. Even in the tennis world all this has been discussed and world number one Novak Djokovic said he was annoyed by this possibility. Both he and many sports legends have affirmed that the meritocratic method in sport must be put above everything. The Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal, number 3 in the world and winner of 20 Grand Slam titles, spoke at a press conference from Barcelona where he is currently engaged, had a more prudent attitude on the subject by not totally closing off this possibility. Nadal is a well-known Real Madrid fan and commenting on this situation he revealed: "I do not have a precise opinion because something has been announced that is still unclear. However we are all suffering from the pandemic, the sport has been hit hard from the point of economic point of view and it is logical that solutions are sought." Simon Chambers, a panelist on Tennis Majors' videocast "Match Points", recently opined that although Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will be dearly missed when they retire, the tennis community should stop expecting the younger players to take their place.

Cambers on Federer and Nadal

"It's not going to be possible to replace Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal and I don't think that the tour should try to market those guys in the same breath, or say that's what they're doing," Simon Cambers said. Cambers echoed that sentiment during the interaction, as he called for a "new breed" to take the reins of the ATP tour. The journalist added that the Next Gen will have to work hard to carve out their own path to glory. "This has to be a new breed, they'll have to work really, really hard at it," Cambers said.
