Barcelona officially announce involvement Super League foundation

Barcelona have officially announced that they're among the founding clubs of the European Super League.

"FC Barcelona announces that it has reached an agreement with eleven other major football clubs in Europe to form a new competition, the Super League, which will be governed by its Founders Club and is intended to be the best sports competition at the level of clubs in the world," Barcelona's official statement reads.

"The Founding Clubs hope to hold talks with UEFA and FIFA soon in order to find the best solutions for the Super League and for world football as a whole," it adds.

As a reminder, Real Madrid's president Florentino Perez will be the chairman of the newly-established competition. Andrea Agnelli (Juventus) and Joel Glazer (Man United) will act as vice-chairmen.

Previously, UEFA and the Football Associations of England, Spain and Italy had released an announcement stating that the clubs agreeing to take part in the European Super League would be banned from all of the remaining competitions.
