UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has reiterated that Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus could find themselves banned from participating in the Champions League if they continue to drive the foundation of a European Super League, with the governing body and three clubs waiting to hear the outcome of a Spanish court appeal.
In an interview with French newspaper L'Equipe, Ceferin said "of course it is possible" that the La Liga pair and Serie A club would find themselves barred after a Madrid commercial court judge last month lifted an injunction. That decision is subject to an appeal from the clubs, meaning the saga will drag on. UEFA have previously said that the clubs could also be fined up to €100m (£85.4m).
"First, the decision can always be appealed," Ceferin said. "When the process is over, we can act. It is possible to punish any club. Some doubt it. They are wrong. The rules are the same for everyone.
