Alexander Ceferin dismantled the argument that the Premier League's success is a threat to clubs in Europe, shooting down the Super League hopefuls once more.
The English top flight is by far and away the richest in the world with their most recent TV deal with Sky worth over £5billion. Other top leagues, like La Liga, Serie A and the German Bundesliga, only generate a fraction of that revenue and as the Premier League grows into an NFL-style Goliath, those in favour of a breakaway European Super League have claimed it is necessary to level the playing field.
Ceferin has made no bones about his opposition to Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus - the only clubs yet to withdraw from the initial Super League project - and he's taken that argument apart. At a UEFA Congress on Wednesday, he said the Premier League should be applauded not attacked for its success.
