Setting out 10 principles for the project, Spain-based A22 Sports Management said it had talked to 바카라nearly 50 European clubs바카라 about the revived proposal. It is unclear if any clubs have publicly supported it.
The document follows an initial legal setback for A22 in December at the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg in a challenge to what it claims is monopoly control by UEFA, the governing body of European football. Advocate General Athanasios Rantos proposed then that the court recognize UEFA바카라s authority over European football competitions.
An official ruling from the court is expected before the end of the season.
바카라Our objective is to present a sustainable sporting project for European club competitions, available to, at a minimum, all 27 EU member states, as soon as possible after receipt of the judgment,바카라 A22 said Thursday.
The document provides detail on an idea first conceived by A22 leaders in 2021 that their next proposal would be a more inclusive multi-tier competition involving more countries.
바카라Participation should be based on annual sporting merit and there should be no permanent members,바카라 A22 said.
Twelve clubs from Spain, Italy and England launched the original breakaway plan in April 2021. That project called for a 20-team league with 15 founders protected from relegation. It was backed by J.P. Morgan Chase bank, which later apologized for a 바카라misjudgment.바카라
The project collapsed within two days amid a fierce backlash from UEFA, fans and lawmakers, who in England threatened legislation to counter it. Only Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus publicly backed the case at court in Luxembourg.
English clubs are still thought to be unlikely to join a revived breakaway plan. The Premier League바카라s international appeal and financial power has only grown in the past two years.
The gap between England and the rest 바카라 typified by the Premier League바카라s domination of the January transfer window and record losses posted last year by Barcelona and Juventus 바카라 could persuade team officials across Europe to find alternative ways to compete.
For any breakaway from UEFA to succeed, it would likely need support from clubs in smaller leagues like the Netherlands, Portugal and Scotland.
바카라Participating clubs should remain fully committed to domestic tournaments,바카라 A22 said, 바카라as they do today.바카라
