UEFA Cup to get new name

UEFA Cup to get new name

07 July 2008 - 21:51

The chairman of the European Clubs Association, Karl Heinz Rummenigge, has revealed that the UEFA Cup could be set for a rebranding; to 'refresh' the appeal of a tournament that has failed to live up to the expectations of 10 to 15 years ago.

  • Chelsea planning move for marquee centre-back
  • Juventus exploring deal for Chelsea striker
  • Rummenigge said: "The hope is that a refreshment of the name and brand can help achieve better results than we've seen in the Uefa Cup in the past.



    "There has been a general impression that it has become a second-class competition and that we should get back to how it was ten or 15 years ago."
