“We must maintain a prudent position,” Laporta told TV3. “The Super League is a necessity, but the last word will be with our partners.
“It would be an attractive competition based on sporting merit. We defend national Leagues and are open to dialogue with UEFA.
“We need more resources to make football a great show and I think there will be an understanding. There has been pressure on some clubs, but the proposal is still valid.
“We make very important investments, the salaries are very high and all these variables must be taken into consideration, together with sporting merit."
