Napoli president De Laurentiis continues to talk up future European Super League

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis is continuing his push for a European Super League.

De Laurentiis believes the current European format does not work.

He said, "I have said this for some time: we need to create a league in which there are six or seven Italian teams, six or seven German teams and so on participating. Then, since I'm a fundamentalist, say that you take the top teams from the five major footballing countries.

"I understand that anyone who seeks to be elected has a more economical idea because he needs votes, but voting has nothing to do with the validity of a championship. Often, institutions do not seem to understand that football is there for the fans."
