The European Court declared the actions of FIFA and UEFA against the Super League illegal

The European Court has declared the actions of the International Football Federation (FIFA) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) against the creation of the Super League illegal. The Independent reports this.

The European Court of Justice said that FIFA and UEFA do not have a monopoly on club competitions in Europe. It is noted that the Super League can officially be created in accordance with European law.

The creation of the Super League became known in April 2021. 12 top European clubs were supposed to take part in it. A few days later the project was frozen due to the blocking of FIFA and UEFA.

Most of the original participants announced their abandonment of the new project. They stated that they faced threats and pressure from third parties, forcing them to abandon the project. In their opinion, the clubs are denying the opportunity to find a solution through constructive dialogue.
