FIFA says anyone playing in “breakaway leagues” won’t be playing in World Cup

It effectively means any player at a club in the European Super League would be banned from international football. They would not be able to represent their country in the World Cup or World Cup qualifiers, while confederations would also ban them from playing in continental tournaments like the European Championship, Copa America, CONCACAF Gold Cup and UEFA Nations League.

Can’t allow the cash farm to produce less crops.

FIFA sucks. Rules like this have no place in international soccer.

They should call FIFA’s bluff here. No way they’d ban the worlds top talent from the WC and lose out on all of the revenue they bring.
FIFA needs them in the WC more than they need to play in the WC. Without the top talent it’s just another Olympic level tournament anyway. Giving even more draw for top players to join the super league.
Don’t get me wrong I love the WC, but if FIFA is really this nearsighted they deserve to sleep in the bed they make.

Good. Any talk of a super league run by billionaires to protect their investment should be shut down. Soccer teams are not money making enterprises. The dumb as frick vultures think they can be money-making, when most clubs in the major leagues barely earn a profit. The long term effect is that a super league will make everything worse, especially the play on the field.

Soooo they want to kill their product? A Euro Super League would have the majority of the world class players globally forced to opt out of the World Cup.

Do people actually support a "super league"? It's a terrible idea that hurts everyone.

Hope this ends the dumb talk about the super league. Not sure how anyone is arguing on the side of a few billionaires that could care less about soccer and only about pocket books. (I know this applies to FIFA also. But FIFA isn’t trying to ruin every league in Europe
