The European Super League project could be set to return as it's reported Juventus chief Andrea Agnelli will submit new plans on Thursday.
A group of 12 clubs launched a breakaway bid last April for a breakaway competition separate from the Champions League.
The plan would have seen the clubs involved become permanent members of the new project but it was met by a backlash from fans.
Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool Atletico Madrid, Inter and Milan all withdrew, at least publicly.
A Spanish judge ruled that the project continues with "participation of all the founding clubs without the resignation of any founding club with legal effects", indicating that the necessary paperwork hasn't or hadn't been completed for the clubs to officially withdraw.
What's certain is that three clubs remain committed to the project: Juventus, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
They've launched a legal challenge to defend their position, with an injunction barring UEFA from imposing sanctions on them.
And the Telegraph reports that Agnelli will relaunch the project in a speech on Thursday, with the closed shop nature of the tournament scrapped.
The Juventus president was chair of the European Club Association until the breakaway blindside, and his relationship with UEFA chief Aleksander Ceferin is frosty at best.
The three clubs are looking to challenge the governing body's monopoly on the competition, with the European Court of Justice to hear their case later this year.
Ceferin said earlier this month: "I have no problems with them, but after stabbing me and UEFA in the back I think it's up to them to call. They haven't.
"In the same way people believe the Earth is flat, they still think the Super League exists. At the same time, they were the first to sign to play in the Champions League this season. A little strange. But if they asked for a meeting, I'd sit down with them.
"It's nothing personal behind it, even with Agnelli. The only things we hear from them are legal challenges that have no reason to exist. They are trying to put pressure everywhere."
