A statement released by the continental organisation says CAF president Patrice Motsepe believes Africa can succeed where Europe failed and launch a Super League.
He says they have been following attempts by some top European clubs to form a Super League and will learn from their experience and pitfalls,” said the South African.
Motsepe is pushing forward after FIFA president Gianni Infantino told CAF officials last year that he favoured 20 permanent African Super League members and additional competitors through qualifying.
He did suggest, however, that each permanent member should contribute $20 mn annually — a target even the richest African clubs would find hard to meet.
