Jan-Christian Dreesen on the judgement of the European Court of Justice

Following today's judgement by the European Court of Justice regarding the Super League, Jan Christian Dreesen, FC Bayern CEO and Vice-Chairman of the European Club Association (ECA), said the following:

“We have taken note of the judgement of the European Court of Justice. However, this does not change FC Bayern's and the ECA's position that such a competition would be an attack on the importance of the national leagues and the structure of European football. The Bundesliga is the foundation of FC Bayern, just as all national leagues are the foundation of other European football clubs. It is therefore our duty and our deep conviction to strengthen them, not to weaken them. We are also committed to the European club competitions under the umbrella of UEFA. So let me make it very clear once again that the door for the Super League remains closed at FC Bayern.”
