Proposed UCC Post 2024 discussed with Member Leagues for the first time

The European Leagues held today a Board of Directors and a General meeting with all their Members to discuss the evolution of European Clubs Competitions from 2024 onwards.

The European leagues welcome the consultation process led by UEFA and consider that the vision based on the so-called “Swiss Model” is an improvement compared to the more radical proposals that emerged in 2019.

The development of the competitions is likely to generate more interest but their long-term impact on the European football eco-system needs to be carefully considered before taking any decision.

The European Leagues have raised strong concerns about more matchdays in such a flexible system in an already very congested calendar. They also questioned the possible impact of access as well as commercial components on the sporting and financial balance of domestic leagues. Finally, they discussed several options regarding financial redistribution.

The European Leagues look forward to working with UEFA and the other stakeholders, to further discuss all these important matters in order to find the best possible outcome for the whole of European football.
