The past Tuesday, the To22, company that promotes the Superliga, kept a meeting with all the estamentos of the European football, from Aleksander Ceferin, to Thebes and Nasser To the Khelaifi, to go back to argue the creation of the project. However, the meeting was infructífero and all the parts kept his posture. Now, the same To the Khelaïfi, president of the ECA and of the PSG, has taken advantage of a convention of the UEFA to analyse it sucedido in the assembly.

The director qatarí was conclusive to the hour to expose his conclusions on the lived the Tuesday in Nyon. "Lamentably, as we saw yesterday in our meeting with the To22, perhaps turn into the To23 or the To24, a new mark every year, some people follow trying rewrite the history and divide the football with presentations of public relations and power-points. To be sincere, seat me sad by them because yesterday they showed that they do not understand the football neither his ecosystem", aimed.

Besides, Nasser took the words of Florentino Pérez on Nadal and Federer to do his own comparison. "It speaks of Nadal and Federer. Have a small experience in the tennis like ancient player. Leave me say them that Rafael and Roger are two of the best athletes of the history of the sport. This does not be due to that they have played together all the time. It is because they worked very hard. Each party was important, was cual was the ranking against which played. Never they asked an enclosed league of the best players. They defended the family of the tennis. Please, they do not use his big names to justify his failures", manifested.

"The future of the European football has to take into account the interests of all the parts interested. All the leagues, all the clubs, the national associations, the fans and all the communities that need our help. In particular, we have to think more in the fans. In the meeting of yesterday, the voice of the groups of fans listened high and clear. They spoke with the heart. The own interest does not have fit in the football. And I am totally of agreement. Neither we need to demolish the things to reform them. We can attain a big positive change from inside the system: the UEFA and the ECA already have showed it the past year", added.

The recado to the Barça and to the Madrid

Finally, To the Khelaïfi went back to remember to the clubs founders of the Superliga when insisting in that "we listen that the League of Champions is not the sufficiently thrilling and that the European football is entirely broken. But they follow playing the tournaments (in reference to Madrid, FC Barcelona and Juventus), do not understand it. The past week, in the case of my club, the winner of the group decided in the last minute: congratulations to the Benfica, deserved victorious. And all the teams of the Group D could have remained first or last of group. But when seeming this is not the sufficiently thrilling and have the solution".

"It says that the League of Champions is not the sufficiently competitive. But many big clubs have not classified in the phase of groups. East could have been my team: like this it is the football. Any club has a divine right to win", concluded the president of Paris Saint-Germain, whose relation with the two big of Spain is each more 'broken'.
