Barcelona president Joan Laporta has claimed that the Super League plot remains alive and that Premier League clubs "are still in favour" of the project.
Liverpool and eight others from the dozen clubs that attempted to launch a breakaway European Super League last year renounced their intentions within 48 hours of the proposal back in April after a fierce backlash from fans and the wider football family. The clubs had resigned their membership of the European Clubs Association before rejoining in the weeks that followed the breakdown of the plot, pledging their commitment to UEFA and its European competitions.
Liverpool, Arsenal, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea were the Premier League clubs to be involved in the project, while Atletico Madrid, AC Milan and Inter Milan all joined them in eventually rejecting the idea of a controversial breakaway competition.
