Uefa vows to take hard line on multi-club ownership in Women’s Champions League
Teams with same owner cannot compete together
Head of women’s football Kessler says ‘no exceptions’
Uefa’s head of women’s football has said rules prohibiting clubs with the same owner from playing together in the Women’s Champions League will be strictly enforced, dealing a blow to investors such as Michele Kang.
Kang owns one of Saturday’s Women’s Champions League finalists, OL Lyonnes, and London City Lionesses, who have big ambitions and whose head coach, Eder Maestre, last week stated their desire to compete for the Women’s Super League title next season.
