The Super League claims to pay the Nuevo Bernabéu in one fell swoop

Publishing The Times in exclusive of the 18-page dossier feel the bases of the SuperLiga claimed by the main ECA clubs, and who resolutely supports Florentino, gives the true keys to the project. And one very solid clue of why interest of the president of Madrid, since, between the 350 million per head that the 15 founding clubs insure themselves and the 3,500 million that are distributed among them (there is room for 233) for infrastructure, Also at the beginning, it could be said that it can be said that the white entity was ensuring immediate income of 583 million and that, therefore, would be equivalent to paying at one stroke the reform of the Bernabéu, for which a loan of 570 million was requested.

The skeleton of Super League project unveiled by The Times draw an attempt to close the highest level football to the most powerful clubs. Madrid, Barcelona and Atlético are the teams Spaniards who are involved in this project (those who would be between 15 founders) against which they have finished raising in arms FIFA and UEFA and even the European Commission. But for Madrid, more than subsistence in these times of crisis), it meant ensuring (as for the other 14 founding clubs), supremacy in European football. These are the highlights of the project.

– 350 million to start talking:

That is the amount that is insured, according to the document, each of the 15 founding clubs Among which there would be six clubs from England, three from Spain, three from Italy, two from Germany and one, PSG, from France. In addition to those 15 fixed clubs, there would be another five places that would be accessed on merits.

– 3,500 million more for infrastructure:

Reveals the document that the entity JP Morgan Chase, one of which has financed the loan for the reform of the Bernabéu, is willing to give others 3.5 billion entry, to promote the project, distribute among the 15 fixed clubs (they touch 233 million each), that would serve, to finance “renovations in the facilities” or “restore part of the income lost by the coronavirus crisis.”

– Competition system:

The initial idea is to play during the week and continue participating in the national leagues. For the Super League they would form two large groups of 10 teams each one, for play at home and outside with everyone, and the first four of each group they would go directly to rooms (to two parties, like the semifinals); the final would be a match. Therefore, they would play a total of 18 to 23 games (now, winning the Champions League, 13 are played).

– More power for the greats:

The competition ensures some income on television a lot higher of which the Champions now contributes, even more so for the 15 founding clubs, and also the Super League would entitle to those 15 clubs to show four parties to the whole world through their own digital platforms (websites, televisions, social networks …). This would further increase said income.

The idea has been dry cut since The Times revealed the content of those 18 pages that were a kind of founding act, and there is more talk about that project of remodeling of the competition that UEFA had planned for 2024. Florentino made Madrid's position clear in the last Assembly of the club, when he told his delegates: “Without all these changes football could not have been what it is today (in reference to the creation of the European Cup, in which the white club actively participated), but we need a new change. Football has to face this new time. And that's how Madrid will be looking, as Infantino says, to defend the fans. The fans themselves are faced with a saturation of the calendar that makes everything very difficult, even identifying the competition that is being played. There are players who are injured by this saturation. Football reform can't wait and you have to face it. We have a responsibility to fight for this change. The new generations consume more content. They must improve competitiveness and quality “. For now, Infantino and FIFA have distanced themselves from the idea, which seems buried.
