It was also announced that German Teams rejected the proposal but it seems they are reconsidering the proposal again.
The chairman of the clubs are also the founding committee of the new super league with Florenzo De Perez the chairman of Real Madrid as the president of the league while others as vice president.
The idea of the league is to create a more intensive mid week competition which will increase the prestige of the clubs and players, likewise bring in more funds to help clubs stabilize their funds due to the Corona virus pandemic that has drastically reduce the income of some clubs.
They also said that the league Wil bring together great clubs and players to competitor and thereby ensure world class competition as well as bring about a global change in the football system in the world. The league is set to kick start in August there have been mixed reactions from Fans and clubs across the football globe.
The league will consist of 20 clubs, 15 clubs will always be in the competition while 5 clubs will be replaced yearly in the competition.
This announcement has not gone well with UEFA, which has being sending threats and punishment to clubs involving themselves in this super league. Uefa sent a warning to this clubs that they will be removed from all the European competition as well as enjoying Fifa to also ban players from this clubs from playing for their National team.
In the wake of the day, there is news that Uefa has temporarily stopped all European football competition due to announcements from various clubs joining The super league. Meanwhile the semi finals includes 5 of these teams which are Chelsea, Manchester city, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Arsenal.
The premier league and other league are also enjoined to suspend any team who partakes in the Super league competition.
Now the battle ground is very strong, will there be a ground for negotiations, will there will be considerations or will the threats and punishment hold ground.
What a time to be a soccer loving fan, let's watch out for the greatest fight in soccer that will go into the history book.
In my interview, here are some reactions of some fans:
Super League is a direct contravention of all known/existing UEFA/FIFA protocols.
Don't forget that they were all warned not to form any league by all governing bodies yesterday afternoon.
They have not withdrawn, yes, but they have formed a League in direct competition, which is an affront on UEFA/FIFA.
There is no way they all shouldn't be banned from the current UCL/UEL and all competitions under UEFA/FIFA regulations. I stand with UEFA/FIFA on this.

If UEFA stops the Champions League now, nothing stops the broadcast companies from suing them to oblivion, which is why I think it won’t happen.

Yes, the banishing part will be hard to do, but it has to be done.
Let the seceding clubs go and be playing themselves every week let's see how that pans out.
A stand has to be taken, no matter how hard it is. No league will remain the same if their big clubs secede, but UEFA/FIFA have to take a stand here. It is what it is.
Everyone will be financially hit, no doubt, but let's see what UEFA/FIFA do today.
LET'S THE GAME BEGIN ALREADY OR LET'S GO BACK TO OUR NORMALITY ANOTHER YEAR OF FOOTBALL PANDEMIC.
