A dramatic 24 hours saw plans for a proposed European Super League apparently fall apart.

Here, the PA news agency charts developments on Tuesday.

The developments started with FIFA president Gianni Infantino saying his organisation “strongly disapproves” of plans for a European Super League and warning the breakaway clubs they will have to “live with the consequences of their choice”.

Criticism from the other 14 Premier League clubs was cutting, with Everton claiming the “preposterous arrogance” of the big six and accusing them of “betraying” supporters around the country.

Boris Johnson held a meeting with the representatives from the Football Association, Premier League and football fan groups, with Downing Street claiming the Prime Minister reiterated his “unwavering support” for their attempts to prevent the breakaway competition.

In an interview with Spanish TV, European Super League chairman Florentino Perez was vehement that expulsion from the Champions League would not happen, claiming “the law protects us”.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola said: “It is not a sport where the relation between effort and success does not exist. It is not a sport where success is already guaranteed, it is not a sport where it doesn’t matter when you lose.”

Paris St Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi said the proposals had been driven by self-interest as he instead backed UEFA’s planned reforms to the Champions League.

The 14 Premier League clubs at Tuesday’s meeting “unanimously and vigorously rejected” plans for the Super League and the league announced it is “considering all actions available to prevent it from progressing”.

Amazon Prime Video said in a statement it had not been involved in any discussions regarding the proposed new league.

Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich confirmed they have said no to the Super League.

City confirmed they had “formally enacted the procedures to withdraw from the group developing plans for a European Super League”, before United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham announced just before 11pm that their involvement in proposed plans to form the league had ended.

Chelsea followed suit just before 1am on Wednesday, declaring its continued participation in the Super League “would not be in the best interests of the Club, our supporters or the wider football community”.

Minutes later, the European Super League released a statement announcing it is considering “appropriate steps to reshape the project” in the wake of the English departures.

It said: “Despite the announced departure of the English clubs, forced to take such decisions due to the pressure put on them, we are convinced our proposal is fully aligned with European law and regulations as was demonstrated today by a court decision to protect the Super League from third party actions.

“Given the current circumstances, we shall reconsider the most appropriate steps to reshape the project, always having in mind our goals of offering fans the best experience possible while enhancing solidarity payments for the entire football community.”
