Last week FIFA and UEFA issued a joint statement warning that anyone who played in a breakaway league would be banned from international competitions like the World Cup.
"I think the Premier League did a fantastic and wonderful job in the way that they have been creating value for this league and becoming the best league in the world. I think all the clubs and the entire domestic football need to defend and to preserve this value," he said when asked about the Super League.
"The domestic league has a value that is extremely important because it is what generates resources for all the football pyramid. All of professional football benefits from the value of the top league. While the Premier League has not commented on the breakaway threat, the European Leagues organisation, an umbrella group which includes England's top flight clubs, said it would work together with FIFA and UEFA to stop any breakaway.
