In 2021, the European Super League faced immense backlash, leading to its rejection by most major clubs, including Bayern Munich. The project recently rebranded as the Unify League, yet still faces skepticism. Bayern Munich's Karl-Heinz Rummenigge expressed that the initial concept was flawed, as only clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona seemed interested. This ongoing tension reflects fan exhaustion stemming from recent turbulent seasons and transfer rumors. The article also hints at fan disillusionment, particularly toward certain players like Joshua Kimmich, following Bayern's Champions League elimination.
"The Super League, as originally planned with the top clubs from England, Spain, Italy, France and Germany, will never happen," said Rummenigge (via @iMiaSanMia). "Because no one will take part except Real Madrid and Barcelona."
Despite being one of the invited clubs, Bayern was never enticed by the money grab of the European Super League. Rummenigge's assessment is probably right but there will always be certain clubs who are too greedy.
