FC Barcelona has officially withdrawn from the European Super League, the controversial project intended to reshape European soccer. The move comes as a significant development in the ongoing saga, which also saw support from Spanish rival Real Madrid and its president, Florentino Pérez.
The Catalan club announced its decision in a statement released on Wednesday, stating, “FC Barcelona informs that it has formally communicated to Super League Sociedade Unipessoal and the clubs involved its decision to withdraw from the project.” This announcement follows a recent ruling by the Madrid Court of Appeal that found UEFA had “abused its position of power” when attempting to block the formation of the alternative competition to the Champions League in 2021.
