The

European

Super League

could take its first major setback just hours after its creation. The

Chelsea

, one of the twelve founding clubs of the new competition of the continental football prepares Tuesday the

necessary documents for output of the project

, as confirmed by

British media as '

The Guardian

', '

The Times

' or '

The Telegraph

'.

While waiting to know more details about the situation, the directive led by the Russian billionaire

Roman Abramovich

would have felt very pressured by the criticism and protests of his fans, who have crowded the outskirts of

Stamford Bridge

, stadium of the 'blues ', before the game against Brighton to show his anger at Chelsea's entry into the Super League. "Give people time," said

Petr Cech

, the club's exporter and now an advisor to the board, to the fans who gathered in the street.

Yesterday it was already rumored in the English press that one of the teams of the famous 'Big 6' of the Premier (

Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea

) would have decided to break the hypothetical contract that binds him to the

Super League

and return to the reins of UEFA. The highest organization of European football has insisted on Tuesday that if any of the clubs wanted to return, they would not put obstacles.

Along with Chelsea, several English media point out that

Manchester City

would also have the intention of abandoning the project.

In this case it is '

The Sun

', which states that the team trained by

Pep Guardiola

will not be part of the new competition.

The Catalan coach had been very critical of the project in his last press conference, and several footballers from the 'citizen' club had shown themselves against the Super League on their social networks.
