Clifford Chance secures another landmark victory for The Super League

In a landmark ruling issued today, The High Court of Madrid has confirmed previous rulings on The Super League case and fully dismissed all appeals from UEFA, LaLiga and the Spanish Football Federation, which are further ordered to pay the cost of the proceedings.

The High Court of Madrid, applying the well-established doctrine of The Court of Justice of the European Union regarding sports in the European Union, has confirmed that our clients, European Super League Company and A22 Sports Management have been the victims of an abuse of dominant position by UEFA and FIFA.

The Clifford Chance team acting for European Super League Company and A22 Sports Management was led by partners Fernando Irurzun, Luis Alonso, and Miguel Odriozola, with the support from counsels Fernando Giménez-Alvear, Pablo Murcia and senior associate Laura García-Valdecasas.
