LaLiga president Javier Tebas has blasted Manchester United and Liverpool over their Super League push.
Tebas says the ‘greedy’ Premier League giants have spent months scheming over an ‘obscene’ £4.6billion European Super League.
The Spaniard insists United’s US owner Joel Glazer and Liverpool‘s John W Henry have been working with Fifa president Gianni Infantino plus Madrid supremo Florentino Perez on plans that will ‘ruin’ the game.
Tebas stormed: “This would be a disaster for football, it would destroy the ecosystem and balance of the game in Europe.
“This whole underground project started with Infantino and Perez — but the Glazers and Liverpool were active too and held meetings.
“They have all tried to keep it secret, before the stories emerged in October and since.”
Tebas says plans could be officially launched next month — with the other 14 Premier League clubs at the risk of losing £3bn between them.
He told The Sun: “Is it just about greed? You can define that how you like — but that’s the idea.
“This Super League project is going to ruin the Champions League. That’s what they’re looking for.
“The Champions League disappears — and the money it generates, they want to divide this up between themselves.”
