PSG chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi delivers scathing attack on Super League clubs

Al-Khelaifi was speaking for the first time in his new position as president of the European Club Association

Paris Saint-Germain chairman Nasser Al-Khelaifi has used his first appearance as president of the European Club Association to take aim at the 12 clubs behind the doomed European Super League. Premier League sides Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham were amongst those pushing for the potentially lucrative breakaway league earlier in the year. While all of the English clubs swiftly pulled out after the proposal was met with fierce opposition from supporters, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus are yet to withdraw. Al-Khelaifi was named ECA president soon after the Super League plan imploded, replacing Juve chief Andrea Agnelli, who had resigned from the position. "I will not spend much time talking about April 18 and the 'not-so-Super League' because I do not like to focus on fabulists and failures," Al-Khelaifi said. Related links:
