"These types have tried to kill the football. It would not matter me that they went , it results very fun that want to create a new competition and at the same time want to play this season the Champions League". Like this of conclusive showed Aleksander Ceferin against FC Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus of Turín, the three clubs that follow at the head of the Superliga European.
The president of the UEFA left clear his contempt to madridistas, culés and bianconeros in these statements to 'Der Spiegel'. The esloveno, that carries months attacking to the new tournament and to the three clubs mentioned, continued with this speech in this interview to the half German. Besides, also it decided to load against the figure of Florentino Pérez in particular, of the that insinuated that it is a hipócrita.
"That Florentino Pérez regret and say that the club only can survive with a Superliga, and afterwards try fichar to Kylian Mbappé by 180 million euros...", it said the responsible maximum of the UEFA referring to the attempt of the Madrid of fichar to Mbappé this summer. As it commented , the whites offered even 200 millions to last hour, but Paris Saint-Germain refused them.
It fits to say that Ceferin did reference to the words of Florentino when it presented the Superliga for the first time. "The football has gone losing interest, the audiences and the television rights have gone down. It was necessary to do something and the pandemia has said us that we had to do it already. We are all ruined, do this to save the football in a moment critical. There are people to which gives him the same because they do not want to lose his privileges", affirmed the leader merengue.
The president of the UEFA did quotation to these statements, although it did not want to remember that the Madrid collected only in sales of players near of 200 millions between the 2020 and the 2021. The whites, besides, did not do signings, since David Praises arrived free, by what wanted to spend all this money in Mbappé. In spite of that the words of Florentino Pérez distilled some hypocrisy, the ones of the Balkan do not remain backwards.
Ceferin And the 'Fair Play'
Finally, Ceferin also spoke very in brief on the 'Fair Play Financial', a subject that concerns and a lot to Barça, Madrid or Juventus. Clubs like the PSG or the City carry years losing money and spending without any control. The UEFA has been accomplice of this and by the words of his president, does not seem very had to exert a total control with this. What seems that it wants to do is to modify it, but not to improve it. "In the future we want to speak of a competitive balance more than of fair play", concluded.
