Only three out of every 10 people who visit Goal are in favour of the biggest clubs in the world leaving their domestic divisions behind

The vast majority of Goal readers have voted against the introduction of a European Super League, which would effectively replace the Champions League and feature only the world's biggest clubs.

Earlier this week, it was confirmed that there were discussions held in London betweenΒ Relevent Sports and representatives of Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City over the possibility of a closed European Super League for the elite.

Seventy per cent of readers from Goal's 37 editions around the world share the opinion that the European Super League would be detrimental to the sport, while the other 30% believe one conglomerated division is the future of football.

When the votes were broken down by gender, women are 25% more likely than men to support a European Super League, while the only age ranges to have more than 40% vote 'yes' to such an arrangement were 0-12 and 55-64.


Countries with strong leagues were invariably in favour of rejecting a European Super League, with United Kingdom (72%), Germany (71%) and Italy (71%) among them.

Such apathy towards the best teams in Europe hogging the limelight was shared in Eastern Europe too, such as in Montenegro (90%), Croatia (78%) and Romania (72%).

There were a small handful of countries containing more people who voted 'yes', however, including Ukraine, Mongolia, Ethiopia and Azerbaijan.
