Extensions to the Euroleague from the recommendation of the Court against ESL

Sport in Europe is facing important developments! His attorney general Court of Justice of the European Union (European Court of Justice) did suggestion against the European Super League, which is attempting to create a closed football league by breaking away from UEFA. This proposal is considered highly unlikely to be rejected by the court and will have ramifications for every sport, even Euroleague of basketball.

According to the proposal of Mr. Rados, former president of the Council of State, and current Prosecutor of the Court of the European Union, the institutions and the international football federations are absolutely justified in their dispute against the European Super League with a series of arguments that establish once and for all the pyramid sports model and oppose any kind of closed league.

Characteristically it states: “The non-recognition by FIFA and UEFA of an essentially closed organization like ESL could be seen as fundamental in the pursuit of some goals and the defense of the basic principles of sport, which are based on the sporting result, equal opportunities and solidarity over the pyramid structure of sport, where European football is based».

At the same time, it becomes clear that international football bodies can impose penalties on those who do not comply with these requirements. “European Union regulations do not prohibit FIFA and UEFA, their Member Associations, or the National Leagues from issuing threats of punishment to clubs affiliated with those Associations when those clubs participate in projects aimed at creating a new competition which could cause a risk of undermining the legitimate objectives of these Federations, of which the clubs are members“, it is emphasized.
