Main points of the article - via @Pierre_B_y

• Putin asked Abrahamovitch to withdraw from ESL. Because of Gazprom links with UCL, because 2022 final is in Saint Petersburg, and because Zenit needs to be in the best competition.
• JP Morgan was a middle man, the money actually came from Saudi Arabia
• UAE asked ManCity to withdraw because they try to build a progressist image of their country and don't want to be associated with Saudi Arabia
• 50 millions has already been spent in marketing and legal fees by the 12 breakaway clubs
• Florentino Perez construction company signed a 6.5 billion euros deal in Saudi Arabia, to built the new Saudi "Las Vegas"
