First announced in April 2021, the European Super League was a controversial planned soccer competition to be contested among a select group of 20 clubs from across the European domestic leagues. Many fans, pundits, and players spoke out against the proposed league, stating that the new setup would be against the competitive nature of the current leagues and competitions and that it was a "closed shop" for some of Europe's richest clubs. During an April 2021 survey in the United Kingdom, around 56 percent of football fans stated that they were not at all interested in watching the European Super League, a figure which rose to 70 percent among supporters of Premier League teams not in the big six.
