Barcelona, Juventus, and Real Madrid are at risk of being imposed with massive fines and banned from the UEFA Champions League after failing to distance themselves from the European Super League.
The European Super League was established in April by twelve clubs: Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Juventus, Inter Milan, and AC Milan.
After receiving heavy criticism from fans, pundits, football players, and managers, nine of the aforementioned twelve teams withdrew from the European Super League project.
By doing so, the club’s saved themselves from the prospect of being imposed with a €100 million fine and a potential two-year ban from the UEFA Champions League.
Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Juventus are currently the three guilty parties who stand the chance of being strongly punished by UEFA.
Whilst speaking in an interview with La Vanguardia, Barcelona president Joan Laporta claimed that Liverpool and Manchester United were the founders of the European Super League concept.
