The European Super League (ESL), officially The Super League, is a proposed seasonal football competition for club teams in Europe. The initial iteration of the league entailed 20 teams, with 15 of them being founding members of the competition. The league was created by a commercial enterprise called the European Super League Company. This company aimed to rival the UEFA competitions, such as the Champions League, which are currently Europe's top club tournaments.
