Plans for a new European Super League are met with a mixed reaction from clubs

Revamped plans for a controversial European Super League have been announced after a top court ruled that banning clubs from joining a breakaway league was unlawful.

The European Court of Justice has ruled that  banning clubs from joining a European Super League was unlawful. The decision opens the way for new competitions and the potential of a whole new structure for European football. Within minutes of the ruling, the Spanish-based organisation behind the bid to set up a new superleague announced it wants to establish a 64 team structure.

Also in the programme presenter Sam Fenwick discusses new Turkish inflation figures, plus controversial economic reforms in Argentina.
