The European Super League is a proposed annual club football competition that would feature top European teams. It was announced in April 2021 but faced widespread criticism from fans, players, and governing bodies like UEFA and FIFA. The league aimed to replace the UEFA Champions League, offering guaranteed spots for founding clubs, which raised concerns about fairness and the traditional football pyramid. After massive backlash, most clubs withdrew, leading to the suspension of the project. This event highlights issues in modern football, including commercialization and fan influence. |
