FSA response to the news that Real Madrid have finally accepted the death of the European Super League by ending legal action against UEFA.

Tom Greatrex, chair of the Football Supporters’ Association, said:

“Florentino Pérez’s European Zombie League has shambled along dead on its feet for years while Real Madrid and Barcelona tried to pretend it had a future.

“It’s taken Pérez almost five years to understand what fans instinctively knew – the European Super League would be widely despised and it was never going to work.

“Let’s not forget that six English clubs originally backed the competition as well. Football’s top executives must never again try to stitch up things in secret – supporters have to be heard on the big issues.”
