Ex-Arsenal defender Sagna: I'll stop watching football if Super League succeeds

Former Arsenal and Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna says he'll give up on football if the Super League succeeds.

Six Premier League clubs have signed up to the breakaway proposal - two of which are Sagna's former team's.

The Frenchman played for the Gunners and Manchester City while Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham are also involved.

Three clubs from Italy and three from Spain have also joined as founding members in a move that has received widespread condemnation.

Sagna himself tweeted: "Oooook .. I think I will stop watching football..(be)cause the football I know is not football anymore".
