Obvious now the motivation for this. Barca and Madrid and in real financial difficulty. United and Liverpool face massive losses as well.
Rather than sell their best players, pay less wages and run the risk of not getting into the Champions League, making their finances even worse, just create a new competition.
These clubs who for years have paid obscene transfer fees and wages, believing they are too big to go bust. And now it’s finally caught up with them and they want to move the goal posts and pull the ladders up against everyone else.
Disgrace.
