They don't even want to do it, the clubs don't make much from it - it is the Governing bodies ramming it through
African nations moved to next Jan which has gone down well with likes of Liverpool who will lose Salah, Mane and Keita |  |

Admittedly the reasons behind it are money, money - and powerbroking BUT if it eventually makes the game global instead of every player from every continent piling into Europe then its possibly no bad thing in the long term.
A side effect might even be players playing for teams that represent the country they come from..... harking back to those distant days when Town played in Europe. |  |

They'll make many millions from the new format, as the article suggests.
Football clubs aren't run by football clubs any more. They are run by big business and their shareholders. And we all know that shareholders won't turn down money. |  |

Might be a future where clubs effectively have a European (/global) squad and a younger domestic squad & manage it that way. Liverpool's situation last month unlikely to be a one-off. | |
