MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - The three teams that remain involved in the breakaway Super League operation, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus, face sanctions from UEFA, who have reached an agreement with the nine other clubs.

European soccer's governing body said on Friday the nine clubs who backed out of the plan had signed a ‘Club Commitment Declaration’ including a series of"reintegration" steps.

"These clubs recognised their mistakes quickly and have taken action to demonstrate their contrition and future commitment to European football," said UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin. "As a gesture of goodwill, and together with the other clubs, will make a donation totalling an aggregate of 15 million euros , to be used for the benefit of children, youth and grassroots football in local communities across Europe, including the UK," said UEFA.

The deal involved the clubs accepting they would face a 100 million euro fine if they seek to play in an unauthorised competition or a 50 million euro fine if they breach any other commitment they have entered into in the Club Commitment Declaration.
