European Super League clubs 'would be offered £310M EACH' to join as it emerges Man United chief Joel Glazer 'is a leading champion of the idea' despite FIFA issuing World Cup ban threat to players

Europe's elite clubs 'would be offered up to £310million' to become founder members of a proposed European Super League - as it emerges Manchester United chief Joel Glazer 'is driving the idea'.

United would reportedly be one of six Premier League clubs among 15 permanent founding members of the breakaway competition, which would replace UEFA's Champions League.

Liverpool, Real Madrid and AC Milan are also involved in the Super League plans, according to The Times.

It comes after the New York Times reported the Glazer family 'are promoting the idea of a Super League'.
