CLUBS TO DISCUSS EUROPEAN PROMOTION AND RELEGATION
April 26, 2019 IFMNEWS
A European football pyramid with promotion and relegation to the Champions League is to be discussed by leading clubs.

European Club Association (ECA) chairman Andrea Agnelli wrote to the body’s 232 members to discuss changes from 2024.

The ECA has called a meeting of the clubs on 6-7 June.

The organisation wants to hear views on “principles we feel are fundamental to the future of European football”.

These include the creation of a “pyramidal Pan-European league system with continuity and opportunity to grow from within” and the “enhancement of mobility and dynamism across the system through carefully applied promotion and relegation”.

Agnelli also says new competitions have to be “an inclusive platform for all clubs, based on sporting meritocracy, not historical privilege”, and that “symbiosis” must be maintained with the domestic leagues.

The ECA, which has denied reports in the past that it plans to create a closed league with guaranteed places for the biggest clubs, said discussions were at an early stage.

The English, French and Spanish leagues – and the European Leagues umbrella group – have opposed such proposals, saying domestic football is more popular with fans.

PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALLERS ASSOCIATION SET TO GATHER EVIDENCE OF RACIST ONLINE ABUSE

Players have been asked to send evidence of racist online abuse to the Professional Footballers’ Association to demonstrate to governing bodies the severity of the issue.

 

Following Friday’s 24-hour social media boycott by professional footballers, the PFA wants continued player support and has set up an email address to allow union members to report racism.

 

 

The PFA is preparing to take its anti-racism message to social media sites, including Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, and is in the process of arranging meetings for next month.

 

According to the PFA, more than 90 million people were reached by the first stage of the #Enough campaign, with David Beckham, Eden Hazard and Dele Alli among those joining last week’s social media boycott.
