Laporta explains Barcelona's decision to exit the Super League: 'A project that had been falling apart' | Barca Universal

"Yes. First, we had to withdraw from the European Super League, and we did so because it was a project that had been falling apart and could no longer be implemented; it only represented expenses for us. There was no benefit,"

"We also weren't comfortable because our relationship with Real Madrid isn't good, and it's difficult to live with this constant discomfort."

"We followed the proper procedure for leaving, giving the required notice. Barça acted correctly. Now, it's about working with UEFA to find a way to ensure the sustainability of football,"

"I'm satisfied because we've contributed to peace within the sport, one of the most prosperous industries in the world and one that generates the most excitement and passion. The football family must be united."

Barcelona withdrew from the European Super League because the project had been failing and represented expenses without benefit.

The club intends to work with UEFA to promote sustainability in football, foster unity within the sport, and strengthen relationships with the Spanish Football Federation and UEFA moving forward.
