Al-Khelaifi: New authority for clubs as Barcelona returns and Real Madrid advances
Nasser Al-Khelaifi, president of the European Club Association, revealed a plan to establish a new global organization called "Global Football Clubs," aimed at representing clubs around the world and enhancing their influence on the international stage alongside the six continental confederations. The proposed organization intends to provide a unified representational umbrella for clubs, enabling them to participate directly in international decision-making, and expanding the model of representation to include clubs worldwide. The number of member clubs has increased from 247 in 2021 to over 900 currently, with a goal of reaching one thousand clubs. Al-Khelaifi confirmed that the return of Barcelona and Real Madrid to the European Club Association indicates a closer relationship between major clubs and the unions, and that the proposed reforms will ensure greater representation and direct rights for clubs, along with securing women’s representation in leadership positions.
