Pharmaceutical CEO: The European Super League is meaningless and the war between Real Madrid and La Liga will never happen in Germany

October 15th Leverkusen CEO Fernando Carlo was interviewed and talked about the European Super League, Alonso and other topics.

UEFA Super League

Caro said: "Many clubs want a closed circle to ensure revenue every year. Now, there is a joint company between UEFA and European clubs to operate TV rights, and clubs have more and more power in decision-making. . The change of competition format has been a huge success, and the European Super League has no meaning."

I hope that both Barcelona and Real Madrid can return to the European Football Club Association

Carlo: "We are all in the same boat, and the important thing is to row in the same direction." Our most recent meeting in Rome was an important step. "

The war between Real Madrid and La Liga

Carlo: "It makes no sense to have continued ill will between a big club and La Liga in a competition. All parties involved should work towards a common dialogue, which would be good for Spanish football. I have witnessed arguments between Spanish clubs at old ECA meetings, this would never happen between German clubs. We discuss it internally first, and what we publish externally is the consensus reached through consultation. Spanish football could have started with a consensus See and benefit from it. "

La Liga's financial control

Carlo: "I like working in Germany and living in Spain because there is the ability to build consensus. When I spoke to Spanish clubs, I was surprised to have an organization belonging to them tell me how to manage their accounts. "

Real Madrid signed Alonso

Carlo: "I think this is not an easy decision for Alonso. He is very happy at Leverkusen and our door is always open to him and he is welcome to come back at any time. He is a great coach who will It will be a success and I can only congratulate Real Madrid for signing him. "

Challenges the football industry will face in the next few years

Carlo: "There cannot be a unified schedule, and there are problems with the national team schedules in some regions, such as the African Cup of Nations. In addition, wages must be controlled, otherwise players and agents will earn more and more and football revenue will flow to them and clubs will not be able to invest. A global salary cap is necessary. We German clubs agree on this, but we are weak. At the EFC, not all members agree. "
