The sports industry was turned upside down, when 12 of the most important sports companies on the planet decided to roll out an alternative competition structure, that was called to substitute the current UEFA Champions League. It happens to be that those are the top 12 football (soccer for Americans) clubs: Real Madrid C.F., FC Barcelona, Club Atlético de Madrid, FC Internazionale Milano, AC Milan, Juventus Football Club, Manchester United, Manchester City Football Club, Chelsea Football Club, Liverpool Football Club, Arsenal F.C., and Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.
In a radical, but expected, turn of events the house of cards came down, with a great dose of conspiracy rhetoric, sparkled with misinformation, poor execution, and an evident lack of dialogue from stakeholders.
On this special episode Rayde, Luis and Vedran give their perspective on the whole ordeal, and come out the other side with a clear understanding that for this to be solved, and for the sake of fans, there’s an impending need for the parties appoint appropriate negotiators and address the Governance and the Financial Operations issues as they are, putting aside futile competition model excuses.
