The United Kingdom s prime minister, Boris Johnson, and Emmanuel Macron, the president of France, have added their voices to condemnation of a plan to launch a $6-billion breakaway soccer super league.
The elite league, which would be backed financially by United States investment bank JP Morgan, would be populated by some of the largest and richest soccer clubs in Europe.
Its proposed establishment, which was announced on Sunday, represents a seismic shift in European soccer; the effects of which are certain to be felt across existing cross-border tournaments, including the Champions League and the Europa League, as well as domestic competitions.
