THAMES: ECA signed a contract worth 15 billion euros, which will completely eliminate the European Super League threat

According to the Times, the European Club Association, led by Nasser, will sign a contract worth 15 billion euros, which will completely eliminate the threat of the European Super League.

Nasser, president of Paris and president of the European Clubs Association (ECA), said the ECA had signed a three-year contract from 2024 to 2027 worth €5 billion per season, a 40 percent increase over the current contract, the Times said. Under the new agreement, the televised and commercial rights to UEFA club matches will be sold in a package, including the expanded Champions League.

The ECA and UEFA also believe that this agreement means that the dream of Real Madrid, Barca and Juve to form a European Premier League is completely shattered. According to the Times, after the new agreement is signed, English clubs participating in the new Champions League can earn 125 million pounds in prize money alone, although there are also fears that the new agreement will further exacerbate the wealth gap between teams.

In a statement, Nasser said: "The new agreement represents a structural shift in the role of clubs in European football and a dawn of financial stability for European clubs as the way clubs play is commercialised will change." In addition, we are exploring new revenue streams. The club has an equal partnership with UEFA in this process, and ECA and UEFA have achieved more together than anything else alone, so that European football will become stronger. ”
