00:00 within the strategy of the story that A22 has built,
00:04 and that A22 and the two Spanish clubs, Real Madrid and Barcelona, have built,
00:09 of the new competition that is open.
00:11 It's not true, it's not true what they're announcing.
00:14 It's a very similar competition, and more closed, than the one announced in 2019,
00:20 and that was rejected by European football, by all its clubs and leagues,
00:24 where there are three categories, 16, the first, 16, the second, 20, the third,
00:29 and only the national leagues have access through the third category.
00:35 The others only have two clubs.
00:38 It's easy to see that with this competition model,
00:41 in that first category, which they call "stars",
00:43 the same clubs will always be there, and it's like a league, almost closed,
00:48 not so closed, like A21, but almost closed, and more closed than the one in 2019.
00:53 Therefore, our maximum support to UEFA as a regulator,
00:56 we know that it's adapting the rules with the social and economic reality we have,
01:00 and our maximum rejection to this competition model.
