The Superlega an alternative football project and, at the same time, a bomb – cultural, political and economic – exploded within traditional football. The negative reactions of the institutions have been very strong and now we are wondering about the concrete risks that the 12 founding clubs, and to the repercussions of their players for the national teams, are already running. Even in the next few hours. Here are the fundamental questions on the table.
2. What will be the immediate fate for Inter, Milan and Juve in Serie A?
An informal meeting was held in the Lega on Monday 19. Some clubs such as Parma and Cagliari have already expressed their position by clarifying that those who join the Super League can no longer register for the championship. In short, the alignments are being defined. In a week, the presidents will meet again.
3. Will the Super League clubs be kicked out of the Champions League?
The founding clubs expressed their hope for cooperation with Uefa and Fifa. At the moment for a very hard wall against wall. However, there is a risk: on Friday 22 April a motion could be voted in the Executive Committee according to which the splinters would be excluded from UEFA competitions already from the semifinals (Real Madrid-Chelsea e Manchester City-Psg) next week. In practice, only the PSG would remain, which said no to the Super League, and in that case everything to clarify what would happen to the Champions League and how the scoreboard would be redesigned.
4. Will the players of the clubs involved be excluded from their national teams? Could we have a European without Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic, Lukaku and many other champions?
This is the possible fallout of the exclusion of clubs from Uefa competitions. If this were to happen, they too would be excluded.
5. When to leave the Superlega?
In the founding manifesto there is no certain date and it is said that it should happen as soon as possible. Realistically the departure will be in August 2022, it is more difficult to get it started earlier.
6. How do I get past the calendars node? Impatter on national leagues?
The Super League is unlikely to invade the agendas of the national championships which, at least in words, remain untouchable for them. It is more likely that the Super League calendars overlap with the midweek ones of the Champions League, attacking the competitor head-on at the same times and in the same television advertising slots. If the aim is to bring down the Champions League, it is credible that the Superlega will act by proposing its product as an alternative to the other, putting on the table a theoretically better one, certainly richer and better packaged. The customer fan will then choose. And Perez & co. they are convinced that I will choose them.
