The president of Juventus, Andrea Agnelli, one of the promoters of the Superliga together with Florentino Pérez, the top leader of Real Madrid, assures that, despite the numerous criticisms received, the competition has "a 100% chance of success" and that the project "goes on".

"There is a blood pact between our clubs, the Super League project has a 100% chance of success, we are moving forward," says Agnelli in an interview with the Italian newspaper 'República' published hours after the resignation of the project by the six English clubs.

"We want to create the best competition in the world capable of benefiting the entire football pyramid, increasing the distribution of resources among the other clubs and remaining open with five places available each year for others, which will be defined through dialogue with the institutions of the football, "explains Agnelli.

The Italian leader says that they maintain "an

open dialogue with institutions, FIFA and UEFA

" by ensuring that "if they make a proposal we will value it" and insists that the Superliga does not pose "any threat" because "there is full will to participate in national competitions and cups ".

"We stay in domestic competitions, we will play in all the stadiums in Italy, Spain and England. Our work will be intrinsically linked to domestic competitions," he says before adding that "

the bonus of 350 million a year is false

" about the information that indicated that the clubs would receive that amount.

After insisting that "the nutrition of the youth sectors is maintained" because "every week we will give the fans the matches of the national league and a new competition, capable of bringing together the younger generations who are moving away from football", Agnelli emphasizes: "What we are doing is perfectly legal."

The Super League announced, at the conclusion of the telematic meeting of the clubs that remain after the abandonment of the six English teams that made it up, that they will continue with a reconfiguration of the project.

"Remodeling the project"

The new competition had to react to the goodbye of the six English clubs, half of the initial 12 founders, but the rest, Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, ​​Atlético de Madrid, Juventus, Inter Milan and Milan, after a long meeting, it seems determined to try to move forward with a project that he considers to be within the law and necessary to reform a system that "does not work" and that needs "stability."

"Given the current circumstances, we will reconsider the most appropriate steps to remodel the project, always keeping in mind our objectives of offering fans the best possible experience by improving solidarity payments for the entire football community," the Super League said in a statement.

The six 'survivors' of the project stressed that the departure of the English clubs was due "to the pressure exerted on them", but made clear their conviction that their proposal "is fully aligned with European legislation and regulations, as demonstrated by a judicial decision to protect the Super League from actions of third parties ".
