UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has threatened to ban players from international competitions after plans for a breakaway Super League competing with the Champions League sparked a furious row.
Ceferin, chief of the European football ruling body, reacted angrily on Monday to Super League plans unveiled by a dozen top teams.
This came just hours before a UEFA meeting confirmed its own Champions League would expand from 32 to 36 teams from 2024 onwards and include 100 more games.
The reform creates more group matches as teams are to be placed in one group.
