PSG urges reconciliation as Real Madrid stands alone on revived Super League push
Real Madrid, PSG
October 2025
Real Madrid remains the only major club still advocating a breakaway European Super League, while PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has invited the Spanish giants back into UEFA’s fold. The Paris club’s call for unity follows years of tension since the 2021 collapse of the original ESL project.
Florentino Pérez continues to argue that UEFA’s competition model is outdated and financially unsustainable. The rebranded “Unify League” proposal from A22 Sports includes promotion, relegation, and a women’s division, but has gained little traction. Barcelona president Joan Laporta signaled renewed willingness to “pacify European football,” leaving Madrid isolated in its pursuit.
