A few days ago, 6 big clubs in English football (Big Six) had to receive a ferocious response from fans when they decided to join the group of 12 founding teams of the tournament called the European Super League. Not only fans' objections, they also face banking from FIFA, UEFA, the Premier League and even the government of Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
Therefore, Manchester City, Chelsea and the remaining teams Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester United, Tottenham have all announced their withdrawal from the project. Along with that are apologies from the owners on the other side of the ocean, members of the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors...
For the other half of the founding group, especially Real Madrid, this withdrawal is like a betrayal when they have agreed with each other, even though Inter Milan, AC Milan, Atletico Madrid have tried to withdraw or postpone players. President Florentino Perez of the Royal team will be even more "cay" if he knows that, when welcoming back to the foggy country, the Big Six group is planning to establish a tournament also associated with the Super League brand.
That is the British Super League (a competition of the UK), with both Celtic and Rangers from Scotland also participating in the project. This is also a reformative plan for the Premier League.
The Sun reported that the six teams have discussed the possibility of a tournament, while two famous teams in Glasgow are said to be ready to be part of the project, which will give them more financial resources.
Unlike the fierce opposition to the European Super League, the British Super League was given a green light by the English Football Confederation, Scotland, the governments of the countries, UEFA and FIFA, approving the new format.
The presence of Celtic and Rangers will not be the only thing new that the British Super League will bring, as the number of teams may decrease to 18. In addition, there is another idea of having more play-offs for the teams in the Top 4 at the end of the season.
But for any new reform to be implemented, the idea would have to pass a vote of Premier League shareholders, with at least 14 votes from the club to pass.
A club representative told The Sun: "Whether the Super League takes place or not, we feel that the Premier League must be changed and reformed. It is time for us to open the door for Rangers and Celtic, that means something to everyone".
