La Liga president Javier Tebas has accused FIFA president Gianni Infantino of supporting the European Super League project. AFP/PIERRE-PHILIPPE MARCOUMADRID: La Liga chief Javier Tebas has accused FIFA president Gianni Infantino of supporting the launch of a breakaway European Super League despite world football's governing body being officially opposed to the project.
FIFA added any club or player participating would be banned from competitions organised by FIFA, such as the World Cup, although it is unclear if such a move would be legal. Tebas believes the documents show Infantino was involved in discussions."In the documents that we have there is the mention of a code name 'W01' which clearly refers to Mr Infantino. That is his code name," said Tebas.
"It is obvious that people involved like Florentino Perez could not have those details if Infantino were against it," added Tebas.In October, Infantino said he was"not interested" in a European Super League but stopped short of confirming if he was for or against.
