Real Madrid is seeking contributions from the six Premier League clubs that withdrew from the failed European Super League, according to a recent report. The total costs could potentially reach €80 million, as per the Athletic. The six clubs in question are Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur.

The Athletic also mentioned that Real Madrid had not yet confirmed whether they would seek payments from the other three clubs that withdrew - AC Milan, Inter Milan, and Atletico Madrid. According to Real Madrid, the six English clubs are responsible for the setup costs, which have so far been covered by Juventus, Barcelona, and Real.
