Málaga is also positioned against the Superliga

Malaga has endorsed the statement released by LaLiga in which it “strongly” condemns the proposal to create the Super League. The blue and white entity has made public through its media the communication of the club's employers' association, in which it is considered that the Superliga “It attacks the principles of open competitiveness and sporting merit that occupy the depths of the ecosystem of national and European football”.

Javier Tebas has positioned himself frontally against the clubs that make up the Superliga project and most of the Spanish professional football clubs have publicly supported the position of the LaLiga president.

The full LaLiga statement that Málaga has also made its own is as follows:

“Málaga Club de Fútbol and LaLiga strongly condemn the announced proposal to create a secessionist and elitist European competition, which attacks the principles of open competitiveness and sporting merit that occupy the deepest part of the national and European football ecosystem.

Today, football fans across Europe can dream that their club, whatever its size, can excel in competition, reach the top and compete at the pinnacle of European football.

LaLiga defends this European football tradition of football for all. The concept proposed by 12 European clubs destroys that dream, closing the door to the top of European football and allowing only a few to enter an elite.

LaLiga has a proud 90-year history as an open, merit-based competition. Millions of fans around the world are fans of the 42 LaLiga Santander and LaLiga SmartBank clubs. The success of our competitions has contributed to football becoming a key factor in the Spanish economy, representing almost 1.4% of GDP and employing almost 200,000 people.

The new European competition proposal is nothing more than a selfish approach, designed to further enrich the wealthiest. It will undermine the appeal of the entire game and have a profoundly damaging impact on the immediate future of LaLiga, the clubs that comprise it and the entire football ecosystem.

In addition, it will also impact the rest of the sports to which, in the current season, LaLiga contributes more than 126 million euros since it endangers the contribution system approved in the Viana Pact.

We will use all the tools at our disposal and we will work with all the parties involved to defend the integrity and future of Spanish football in the best interest of the game ”.
