Although in the final of the most elite competition (Champions League), The "royal club" could face serious consequences.

The possibility of founding the football "Super League" caused a real "earthquake" last year, when the idea began to be realized. But under threat from UEFA, almost all clubs abandoned the plan, but the most persistent do not give up the idea.

Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus continue to initiate the Super League project, although they usually compete in European competitions under the auspices of UEFA. The first man of the European Football House, Alexander Cheferin says clubs supporting the Super League could be excluded from European competition.

- It is possible to punish any club, including a potential winner of the Champions League, and of course it is possible to be expelled from the competition. This will be decided by the UEFA Disciplinary Commission, which is an independent body. They complain that UEFA earns billions, and 93,5% of the income goes back to the clubs - are the words of Ceferin.

UEFA's latest decision regarding its European competitions is that all three competitions from 2024 will have 36 teams in the group stage instead of the previous 32. Ceferin also explained the main difference between the Champions League and the Super League.

- UEFA has shown that it is fully committed to respecting the basic values ​​of sport and defending the key principles of open competition. These decisions are the result of intensive discussions with fans, players, coaches and representatives of the association. Having more clubs in the Champions League does not mean that we have become a Super League. The Super League would always have the same clubs that would play against each other - said the first man of UEFA.
