Barcelona president Joan Laporta believes that the European Super League will become “a reality in 2025” despite a court ruling last month that effectively gave UEFA the power to ban any club or players attempting to join a breakaway competition.
The Nou Camp chief has also claimed that a number of other clubs who “have not yet shown their faces” are “very interested” in joining a Super League. Laporta, however, thinks that the competition will initially take place without any English clubs even though he believes that at least four would be keen on joining.
“I think there will be a Super League,” Laporta told Spanish radio station Cadena SER. “I would not have entered into this project if it was not an open competition and it was accepted by Real Madrid, Juventus and other clubs that have not yet shown their faces but are very interested in this competition.”
