Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez has voiced strong criticism of the new UEFA Champions League format.
According to Idman.biz, Pérez described the revamped tournament as unfair and ineffective:
"The new Champions League format is unfair, nobody understands it," said Perez.
"With more games, the value of each one has fallen almost 30 percent - there are more games, but they are worth less.
"This competition will only arouse interest at the end and not at the start."
Starting in the 2024/2025 season, the Champions League features 36 teams competing in a league phase with each team playing eight matches.
