3) FIFA may not be fans of a Super League

Rather ironically, it was Sepp Blatter who spoke in 1998 of potential bans being imposed by FIFA on any clubs which chose to join a breakaway ‘Super League’ and attempt to break up the “family of football” – I think you had a stab at that yourself Sepp.
Nonetheless, it remains a threat from both FIFA and UEFA for that matter that teams that would join the hypothetical league would be banned from their own national leagues and other continental club competitions.
Furthermore, it seems that any player that plays in the competition could also be banned from representing their country in international football, so Sergio Aguero could be faced with the dilemma of choosing between Manchester City and Argentina.
This is, ultimately, because the competition would be built on a desire for increased revenue, not taking into account what is best for the sport as a collective.
