"I do not do it to save Real, but to save football
. This sport is at a critical moment, what we are doing is only for the sake of the ball. If we generate profits, everyone benefits, even those who are more in bass".
Florentino
Perez
, n.1 of Real Madrid and of the newly born Superlega, thus defends the project to which 12 clubs have joined.
"Football must evolve and this format will guarantee us much more money - said Perez in a long interview with Chiringuito TV -, the Champions League has now lost appeal".
Then the attack on UEFA: "Ceferin cannot insult as he did with Agnelli, he is unpresentable".
"I want to be extremely clear: FIFA is an organization built on values, the true values of sport.
As Fifa we can only strongly condemn the creation of a Super League
, which is something closed, which is an escape from current football institutions. There is no doubt that Fifa disapproves of this project ".
This was stated by FIFA president Gianni
Infantino
, speaking during the Uefa Congress in Montreux in Switzerland.
