Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus set to relaunch Super League project with one major change

Last summer, the news about a possible European Super League, spearheaded but the biggest clubs in Spain, England, and Italy took the football world by storm. The project came up as a threat to the UEFA Champions League with the idea of a promise of humongous revenue.

Fans were not too keen hearing this, though, as it gave reservation to the most prominent clubs with no relegation/promotion. Eventually, all but three clubs pulled out of the project after protests from fans and warnings from UEFA – Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Juventus.

Telegraph now reports that the three clubs are ready to relaunch the doomed project with one significant change. The concept of permanent membership will be scrapped to make it more inclusive and allow other clubs to enter via domestic qualification.

The new proposal is likely to be announced later this week by Juventus president Andre Agnelli at a sports industry summit.

After the initial reaction, it will be interesting to see how the fans, and more importantly, UEFA, react to his.
