Real Madrid, Liverpool among 12 elite football teams breaking out in the European ‘Super League’

A group of 12 high-level European football teams on Sunday announced plans to split from the Champions League to create their own league called the Super League. The new league features some of the biggest names in football, including Manchester United, Liverpool, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and AC Milan. Six of the teams are British, three are Italian and three are Spanish. This move has sparked backlash from some heads of state, including British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who tweeted “Plans for a European Super League would be very damaging” and said he “supports football authorities in taking action”. In a statement, the Super League’s “founding clubs” announced that they expect to be joined by three more teams, which have not yet been named.
