The Premier League has issued an official statement expressing their opposition to the Super League.

 

  The Super League has been strongly condemned by the Premier League in an official statement.

  The Premier League firmly rejects the Super League and wants to make it clear that they do not support such a concept.

  The official statement stated, “Today’s ruling does not endorse the Super League  and the Premier League continues to reject any such concept”.

“Supporters are of vital importance to the game and they have time and again made clear their opposition to a “breakaway” competition that severs the link between domestic and European football”.

“The Premier League reiterates its commitment to the clear principles of open competition that underpin the success of domestic and international club competitions”.

“Football thrives on the competitiveness created by promotion and relegation, the annual merit-based qualification from domestic leagues and cups to international club competitions and the longstanding rivalries and rituals that come with weekends being reserved for domestic football”.
