European Super League: Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus faces threat of Champions League BAN after Madrid court announces VERDICT in UEFA’s favour

Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus could still be punished by UEFA for their involvement in the breakaway European Super League after a new judge in a Madrid court lifted an injunction on the governing body.

The decision means UEFA can pursue action against the three rebel clubs – who have remained with the Super League project if it wishes to do so.

But it is thought unlikely at this stage that UEFA will pursue punishment, with the European Court of Justice case yet to be heard. The ECJ will decide whether the Super League is protected by EU law.

‘UEFA has today received the order of the Madrid court, lifting the precautionary measures in their entirety,’ UEFA said in a statement. ‘UEFA welcomes this decision and is considering its implications. UEFA will not be making any further comment for the time being.’

The lifting of the injunction comes more than a year after 12 breakaway teams announced plans to form their own Super League, which were met with widespread condemnation across the game.

Six Premier League teams were among the nine clubs who withdrew from the plans just days after they came to light.
