UEFA’s announcement:
“UEFA has been informed of the decision of the Court of Justice of the European Union in the case of the European Super League.
This decision does not imply approval or endorsement of the so-called “Super League”. Rather, it highlights a pre-existing shortcoming within UEFA’s pre-qualification framework, a technicality already recognized and addressed in June 2022.
UEFA is confident of the reliability of its new rules and in particular that they comply with all relevant European laws and regulations.
UEFA remains steadfast in its commitment to supporting the European football pyramid, ensuring that it continues to serve the wider interests of society. We will continue to shape the European sports model collectively with national federations, leagues, clubs, fans, players, coaches, EU institutions, governments and partners.
We hope that the solidarity-based pyramid of European football, which fans and all stakeholders have declared as their irreplaceable role model, will be safeguarded against the threat of secession from European and national law».
