European football 'more united than ever' after court ruling: club association

The European Club Association (ECA) said football on the continent is "more united than ever" despite Europe's top court ruling UEFA had used illegal tactics to stifle the breakaway Super League.

"European Club Association (ECA), representing nearly 500 professional football clubs across Europe, takes note of the judgment issued by the European Court of Justice today," it said in a statement.

"To be absolutely clear, the judgment in no way whatsoever supports or endorses any form of Super League project."
