In an interview given to La Gazzetta dello Sportthe president of LaLiga, Javier Tebas, once again castigated the Super League project and paid Bernd Reichart, boss of A22 Sports Management (company founded to sponsor and assist the creation of the competition): “When the clubs realize that with the national championships, they will not have direct access to the first level of the Super League, but only to the third division. I want to see if they will still accept. That’s why I call him Bernd Copperfield. For me, he’s a magician. A magician who takes everyone for idiots. The clubs first. And then us in La Liga, those in the Premier League, the Bundesliga, you in Serie A, and the managers of Sky, Dazn, Telefonica and American Sports..
Among Bernd Reichart’s major objectives, making the matches of the future Super League accessible free of charge is at the top of the list. But for Tebas, this project is simply a utopia and a lie: “He says he’s going to broadcast football for free, but that’s just impossible. If it were possible, why hasn’t anyone done it yet, in Europe or the USA? It’s like eliminating the sale of stadium tickets: everything is free in the hope of attracting big sponsors to full stadiums. He disrespects us, thinks we are all incompetent, and works with deception. And in fact, he has already corrected the problem on Free by talking about different levels of access to the streaming platform. And he’s not the only one to lie.”he then concluded.
