Boris Johnson, Macron, Italy PM Draghi all coming out against this super league as well.
The clubs may have opened up a box they didn't anticipate.
Also will be interesting if Barcelona and Madrid fan/shareholders vote to back this as well, as would be required.
This is obviously about money, but what is important to realize is that the super league teams are almost all hundreds of millions of dollars in debt. Inter, the likely Serie A champion this year, may not even be able to pay salaries. So these clubs are making this Hail Mary bet under intense duress. And that's a big reason I think it will collapse, and why should UEFA renegotiate anything, as it becomes clear the renegade clubs are holding a much weaker hand than they thought.
