The proposal made back in 2021 threatened to shake football to its core with 12 teams across Europe threatening to compete in a new competition to rival the Champions League.

AC Milan, Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Barcelona, Inter Milan, Juventus, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Real Madrid and Tottenham Hotspur all joined as 'Founding Clubs'.
However, after football fans united against the idea and staged protests, the teams withdrew from the plan and apologised to their supporters.

But now, according to Ceferin, some Premier League clubs' owners were more keen on the idea of the European Super League than others.
Speaking on ex-Manchester United star Gary Neville's podcast The Overlap, the Slovenian said: "As much as I know, unfortunately your club's [United's] owners were very much involved and Liverpool as well.
"I think that those two were from the English side the most involved [in the Super League].
"The last to join were Chelsea and Manchester City. I'm not sure about Tottenham and Arsenal.

"When I arrived in Switzerland, I got a phone call from one of the English clubs saying that we'll have to join this project. They didn't like it but didn't want to be the only ones out.
"Two clubs were hesitating in England very much, they said they wanted to stay friends with us, our friends from within.
"Both Chelsea and Manchester City were hesitant from the beginning, and it was one of these teams that called me."

Ceferin - who has been UEFA president since 2016 - then went on to reveal he had a big falling out with a figure at the top of an unnamed Premier League club that was pushing for the European Super League.
"I had a phone call from one of the English clubs, I will not say which. I lost it a bit and said, 'You go to hell. From tomorrow, you are my enemies. I don't want to speak to you any more'. It was tough."
But in terms of Premier League clubs having financial strength that most of Europe cannot rival, Ceferin revealed that wasn't a concern of his.
He added: "I am not worried about that. I think the Premier League is doing a good job and the other leagues should do a better job."
