Note: that the ECJ is not bound by the Opinion of the AG. However, his opinions can be very persuasive as they aid as a stepping stone in their deliberation in reaching a final decision. If you can remember, this case was instituted by the ESLC against FIFA and UEFA before the Juzgado de lo mercantil de Madrid (Commercial Court of Madrid) after the former accused the latter of anticompetitive behaviour which it claimed they committed by threatening clubs who wished to join the competition. The court in Madrid, hav...
