British media "footballinsider" exclusively reported that the Premier League has no plan to imitate La Liga and Serie A in the short term.
The Spanish Football Association has approved Villarreal's home match against Barcelona in the United States, which could be the first European League match to be played overseas. The Spanish Football Association plans to hold the match at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami on December 20, and they are seeking permission from FIFA and UEFA.
Meanwhile, AC Milan is pushing for a Serie A match against Cuomo in Perth, Australia, but the plan needs to be approved by FIFA, UEFA, Australian Football Association and AFC.
In recent years, the Super Cups in Italy and Spain have been held overseas with the goal of attracting a wider audience. In 2008, the Premier League proposed to add the 39th round of the league and put it overseas, but it was strongly opposed by fans and the plan was ultimately failed to implement. As La Liga and Serie A move the game overseas, the outside world is curious whether the Premier League will follow suit.
However, sources revealed that the Premier League official currently has no idea to hold a competition overseas immediately. It is believed that the Premier League has enough attention worldwide, and the economic benefits of hosting competitions overseas are not huge at this stage.
Premier League teams have traveled to Europe, Asia and the United States in recent years during the summer preparation period, and these pre-season tours can boost the club's business revenue. Manchester United, Everton, West Ham and Bournemouth participated in the Premier League summer series in the United States this summer.
According to our April report, Manchester United's trip to the United States could bring them £15million, which is a considerable financial gain for the club. In addition, the Red Devils also played the post-season Asian Tour for the first time in May, playing against the Southeast Asian All-Stars in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and playing against the Hong Kong team at the Hong Kong Stadium in China.
