UEFA and Real Madrid reach an agreement to end the legal battle in the Super League


UEFA and Real Madrid have reached an agreement that will end their bitter legal feud over the ill-fated European Super League, the club and European football’s governing body said on Wednesday.

UEFA, the European Football Clubs (EFC) and the Spanish giants said they had reached an “agreement in principle” that would respect sporting merits, after months of talks aimed at promoting the “welfare” of European club football.

“This agreement on principles will also serve to resolve their legal disputes relating to the European Super League, once such principles have been implemented and implemented,” UEFA and Real Madrid said in a joint statement.

In October, Real sought damages from UEFA after the club said the Madrid Regional Court had rejected appeals filed by UEFA, the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) and LaLiga regarding the Super League.

Real were one of 12 European clubs to back the breakaway competition in 2021 before support for the controversial event collapsed under pressure from fans and governments hgtgdfgdtr18.

When clubs pulled out, including six Premier League clubs, Real and Barcelona were the only clubs still behind the project, which briefly threatened to rival UEFA’s Champions League.

However, Barcelona officially withdrew from the European Super League project last week, leaving Real Madrid as the only remaining advocate for a competition.

The organizers tried to revive the idea in December 2024 with a new concept, the “Unify League”, with 96 clubs divided into four leagues.

However, that also failed to generate substantial support, with strong resistance from major competitions such as La Liga and the Premier League.
