Cheferin: UEFA accepts the Club World Cup but I don t agree to do so. La Liga overseas matches are not a good thing

UEFA President Cheferin accepted an exclusive interview with the Belgian media, during which he discussed topics such as moving the La Liga match overseas.

FC World Cup and Relationship with FIFA "I'm not worried. Our clubs want this, especially big clubs, mainly for financial reasons. If they hold the Club World Cup every four years, it's acceptable for us. But I don't agree to do this, and I don't think they should do it either. Club football is not just a UEFA thing, there have been smaller Club World Cups before."

"The most troublesome thing is that players have to play for five more weeks after the season, which is so tired, and they need to talk to clubs that support this idea. It's very tiring , because there are men's football matches, such as the World Cup, the European Cup and the Copa America. Now that the African Cup is also held in January, it's almost endless. Let's see what will happen in the future, I know they won't hold the World Cup every two years. Our relationship with FIFA is not bad. "

One of the most concerned issues at the moment UEFA is the multiple ownership

"This is one of the issues we need to solve at the moment. A complete ban will drive away investors, allowing two clubs to belong to the same owner and compete in the same event is unacceptable because it will affect the credibility of the game. Once we lose credibility, we lose everything. That's the problem, so we're analyzing case by case. I know the person in charge has found a solution: control the owner through blind trusts. This is the current solution, but we're still discussing it."

La Liga plans to play Barcelona and Huang Qian in Miami. "We are not satisfied with this, but from a legal perspective, if the Football Association agrees and the two clubs agree, we don't have much room for maneuver. But in the future we need to seriously discuss this issue, because football should be played in Europe and fans should watch it at home Watch the game, not to go to Australia or the United States. We will have a conversation with FIFA and all football associations about this, because I don't think it's a good thing. If it's an exception, it's acceptable; if there's a reason, it's acceptable; but in principle, European teams should play in Europe because their fans live in Europe. "

European Super League

"I met with Laporta, everything went well, but it's not negotiations. The new match system (Champions League) will not change, it's clear. We always welcome Real Madrid and Barcelona back to the European football family, they've always belonged here."
