Juventus deals major blow to Super League with decision to withdraw

Juventus is initiating the legal process to dissociate itself from the controversial Super League.

The club has sent a letter to Real Madrid and Barcelona, the other two remaining founding members of the league, informing them of its decision.

The move comes after the Super League faced widespread criticism and backlash from fans, players, and football governing bodies.

The league was formed in April 2021 by 12 of Europe’s top football clubs, including Juventus, with the aim of creating a closed competition that would guarantee them a place in the tournament every year, regardless of their performance in domestic leagues.

However, the Super League was met with fierce opposition, with fans protesting against the move and football governing bodies threatening to impose sanctions on the clubs involved.

Within days of its announcement, several clubs withdrew from the league, leaving only Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Juventus as the remaining founding members.

Juventus’ decision to dissociate itself from the Super League is a significant blow to the league’s future, as it was one of the driving forces behind its formation.

The club’s decision is expected to be followed by similar moves from Real Madrid and Barcelona, which could lead to the collapse of the league.

The legal process to dissociate from the Super League is expected to take several weeks, but Juventus has made it clear that the decision has been made.
