FIFA Chief Fires Strong Warning To Super League Clubs
FIFA Chief Gianni Infantino declared his support for UEFA and the Champions League and has made it clear that the Super League clubs and their players would be fully out of their system.
“We can only and strongly disapprove of a SL which is a closed shop, breakaway from current institutions,” FIFA chief Gianni Infantino said in a statement at the UEFA congress.
“No doubt whatsoever of FIFA’s disapproval. Full support to UEFA.
“It is my task and our task to protect the European sports model, club competitions, national teams.
“If they choose to go their own way, they must live with their choice. They are either in or out. They cannot be half in and half out.”
