🎥 European Super League unveils plans for brand new format | OneFootball

The European Super League has proposed new plans to completely reinvent club football on the continent.

Thursday saw the European Court of Justice rule in favour of clubs looking to break away from traditional competitions ruled by UEFA and FIFA, with the ECJ claiming that their monopoly on the game’s governance was contrary to European law.

And now the Super League has revealed how it plans to format its new competition.

Thee new competitions will be created called ‘Star’, ‘Gold’ and ‘Blue’.

‘Star’ – the top league in the pyramid – will involve 16 clubs split into two groups of eight – playing a minimum of 14 games in their league stage before going into a knockout round.

That is also the same format for the ‘Gold’ league, which is in the middle of the pyramid.

‘Blue’ – the bottom rung of the ladder – will have 32 teams with four groups of eight.

The new structure will also included promotion and relegation with the top and bottom two in their respective league changing divisions the following season.

Games will take place in midweek, meaning current domestic competitions can theoretically still go ahead.

There has yet to be no confirmation as to which teams, if any, will be guaranteed places in the new Super League.
