Speaking to ESPN FC, Barcelona president Joan Laporta said: "The European Super League? Right now we have a calm approach about it, not wanting to upset anyone.

"We encouraging dialogue with institutions in Europe be they political or sport, and make it the most attractive competition in the world.

"We're open to discussion, but what it is going to be is a competition where the clubs will be able to exercise their power to make their own decisions.

"At the end of it, we are the ones that are supporting the weight of what is European football.

"The European Super League can be the most attractive competition in the world if we do it right, and I'm sure we're going to do it right because the law protects us."

Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus remain committed Super League despite their continued participation in the Champions League.

The trio are reportedly planning to relaunch the controversial project at some point in the future as an open competition with a two-tier system.
