Here is a full list of clubs that have rejected the idea of the European Super League amidst a recent decision by the European Court of Justice.
The European Court of Justice in its ruling on the case of the formation of the Super League ruled that FIFA and UEFA can not halt the formation of the league. Since its ruling clubs have come out to share their stance on the formation of the Super League, clubs like Barcelona and Real Madrid have shown their desire to continue with the league with a top Serie Aside Napoli also sharing their interest in joining the league.
Numerous clubs have however rejected the idea of the Super League pledging their full support for all UEFA competitions. This came as a shock to many as some of the names on the list had initially expressed their desire to join when the league was first announced.
Here are the full list of clubs that have rejected the formation of the Super League:
Arsenal (Via the official website): "Arsenal Football Club notes the judgement by the European Court of Justice on Thursday, 21 December 2023 and our position in relation to the European Super League has not changed. We will continue to play in UEFA competitions and continue to work with fellow European clubs and the European Club Association (ECA)."

Chelsea (Via the official website): "The judgment issued today by the European Court of Justice does not change Chelsea FC’s position. We firmly believe that, by working with the Premier League, The FA, other European clubs through our strong relationship with the ECA, and with UEFA and FIFA, we can, together, continue to develop the European game for the benefit of everyone."
Atletico Madrid: “The European football family does not want the European Super League. Germany, France, England, Italy, Spain (except for Real Madrid and Barcelona), etc. do not want the Super League. We are in favor of protecting the European football family, safeguarding domestic leagues, and ensuring that qualification for European competitions is achieved through on-field performance every season."
Bayern Munich: “It’s very clear: the door for the Super League at FC Bayern remains closed. Such a competition would represent an attack on the importance of domestic leagues and the statics of European football."
Borussia Dortmund: “We are not available for Super League."
Paris Saint-Germain: “Paris Saint-Germain totally and utterly rejects any plans for a so-called Super League, which has been the case from day one and will always remain the case.

Sevilla and Valencia: "Earn it on the pitch."
Monaco: “AS Monaco would like to express its full commitment to the principle of sporting merit which governs UEFA competitions and the French championship. AS Monaco will continue to work with the Ligue 1 clubs within the Ligue de Football Professionnel, and with other clubs through the ECA, in order to participate progressively and collectively in the development of football."
Roma: “The club in no way endorses any so-called Super League project that would present an unacceptable attack on the importance of the national leagues and the foundations of European football. AS Roma believes that European football’s future well-being can only be secured through clubs working together through ECA in strong partnership and collaboration with UEFA and FIFA."
Manchester City: "Manchester City Football Club confirmed in 2021 that it had formally enacted the procedures to withdraw from the group developing plans for a European Super League. Our position has not changed. We remain committed to the values of European football, and we will continue to work with fellow clubs through the ECA and participate in UEFA competitions."
