24 Hours After Leeds Vs Liverpool, The Reds Squad Compactly Uploads The Rejection Of The European Super League
JAKARTA - The Liverpool players on Wednesday morning WIB compactly uploaded a statement of attitude in the form of rejection of the European Super League, a midweek competition against the Champions League formed by their club with 11 other European teams.
Through their respective social media accounts, the Liverpool squad led by captain Jordan Henderson uploaded a picture on a red background with a message of rejection of the European Super League.
"We don't like it and we don't want it to happen. This is our collective position. Our commitment to this football club and its supporters is absolute and without any conditions. You'll Never Walk Alone," the message was written in the upload.
Reporting from Antara, the message was more or less the same as the one conveyed by Liverpool's vice-captain, James Milner, after the Premier League match against Leeds United, approximately 24 hours earlier.
"I understand my own opinion. I don't like it and hopefully that doesn't happen," said Milner.
Meanwhile, Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, also stated that he had not changed from his stance in 2019, which had firmly rejected the discourse of competitions such as the European Super League.
Henderson had previously reported that the British media took the initiative to gather the captains of the Premier League to discuss the issue of the European Super League.
At the time this statement was made, Liverpool had not made an official statement.
Two other English clubs with the status of founders of the European Super League, Chelsea and Manchester City, were previously reported to be preparing to finalize their withdrawal documents from the competition.
