It's been one year since 12 European clubs revealed plans to break away and form a European Super League, a motion that shook the football world. The project that was once just a pipe dream finally became a reality when Europe's big clubs announce breakaway plans.
Leeds United were gearing up to face Liverpool at Elland Road with the news of the Super League breaking on the eve of the fixture, with Whites' players wearing t-shirts in protest against Jurgen Klopp's side. The Reds were among the Premier League's breakaway clubs, much to the distain of their supporters.
