A22 Sports Management have unveiled new proposals for what the league would look like
The European Super League (ESL) is back. A22 Sports Management have unveiled proposals for a new 64-team competition in the immediate aftermath of a decision by the European Court of Justice (ECJ) that concluded UEFA and FIFA rules banning clubs from participating in breakaway tournaments were contrary to European law.
Clubs from across Europe will be free to participate in the competition, which will include three tiers, promotion and relegation and will be broadcast to viewers around the world. Whether any will ultimately join this rival to the Champions League remains to be seen but they are free to do so after Thursday's decision.
The ESL and its backers claimed that UEFA and FIFA were breaking competition law by threatening them and players with sanctions. The ECJ concluded that this was indeed the case.
