However, given that the financial problems that prompted the 12 clubs to announce the Premier League a few weeks ago have not gone away, we repeat that, respecting our history, our responsibility to our partners and our fans, for the sake of financial sustainability for the sake of sport and in the interest of football, we have a duty to act responsibly. And perseverance in searching for solutions, despite the unacceptable pressures and threats that we continue to receive from UEFA (6). UEFA and all footballers, as we have done on several occasions since the Premier League was announced, our commitment and firm will to discuss the most appropriate solutions, with due respect, without absolutely unbearable pressure and with respect for the rule of law.
