Barcelona president Joan Laporta blames 'financial doping' for revised European Super League proposal
, the Barcelona president said: “The financial situation of football clubs, which we must remember are the only ones who assume financial risks and costs, is very worrying.
“We have had to resort to the financial levers that have been necessary to sustain our future. That is why we have supported the creation of the Super League from the beginning. “We still firmly believe that it is the solution that football needs, especially football in the European Union which, unfortunately, is not having the best of times, immersed in a negative trend in terms of television audiences, stadium attendance and the difficulty of attracting new [fans], especially among young people, who are seduced by other entertainment.
“This issue will indeed be addressed by the Super League and this is one of the main reasons why we support the project.”
