Mbappe seemed to make the switch from Paris Saint-Germain to Real Madrid, but the star attacker opted for a longer stay in Paris. Mbappe will earn an astronomical amount at PSG. Real is displeased with the state of affairs and expressed criticism.
“I absolutely do not agree with that,” said Ceferin, in the run-up to the Champions League final, which will be between Real Madrid and Liverpool on Saturday. “There are too many innuendo and conflict in football anyway. I think every league should be concerned about its own situation. We have clear rules within UEFA. Those who follow the rules are allowed to play in our competitions. The others don’t,” said Ceferin.
A group of major European top clubs wanted to organize a new Super League last season, outside of UEFA. Most clubs withdrew, but not Real, Barcelona and Juventus. According to Ceferin, that doesn’t matter to him now. “Real Madrid deserve to be in the final. You can believe me or not, but I don’t care who wins on Saturday.”
