Ceferin: Ending the European Super League is the most important victory of 2021 and it threatens UEFA's mission

UEFA President Ceferin described the end of the UEFA Super League program as "the most important victory of 2021" in his year-end summary of this year.

In his concluding report, Cheferin said: "The end of the Premier League, under the condemnation of politics and public condemnation across the continent, is our most important and shared victory in 2021. Last April, an attempt to create a closed Premier League, just to fill the bank accounts of some clubs, threatened the core values of the Eurosport model and UEFA's mission. ”

"Few organisations have been able to embody the value of the European sports model as much as UEFA. Every four years, a large portion of our Europa League revenue goes into football development projects across the continent. ”

He also praised the fact that UEFA considers all European football associations: "Again, the model's commitment to open competition was a key factor in the birth of the European Cup. The 55-nation Football Association now ensures that they participate in at least one UEFA event per season. ”
