WATCH: Soccer players hit out at plans for a breakaway European Super League

The duo, alongside others including Mesut Ozil, Dejan Lovren and Ada Hegerberg, as well as former players Luis Figo and Bastian Schweinsteiger reiterated criticism of proposals announced on Sunday.

"If the Super League will be realised, it will destroy football with its national leagues as we know it," he said.
