BleedClaretAndBlue Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I believe when the RB Salzburg/Leipzig issue came up a few years back, they had to make certain changes to their boards or something and that UEFA would crack down on any similar cases moving forward. At least we’ve been informed and have made the necessary changes to avoid being made an example of and missing out altogether. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceemo Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 This was brought up at the time when V Sport originally took the 46%. The Vitoria president said that all UEFA regulations were carefully checked at the time and that Sawiris/Edens would be open to make whatever changes were needed if UEFA came back to them and that is what is happening now. Interesting to see what will also happen between Toulouse and AC Milan who have the same owners and are in the Europa League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have, but I don't see what that has to do with other teams not being asked to do the same? There's other examples of shared ownership at percentages higher than ours and clubs playing in the same tournament, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
