UEFA should invite some selected African club sides into the European soccer trophies

 

I think UEFA should invite some selected African club sides into the European soccer trophies.

This would help African soccer.

We could invite the best African club sides into the European Champions League, the Europa League, and the new UEFA Europa Conference League.

In rugby union the Pro14, had teams from Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Italy and South Africa.

So if teams from South Africa could play in a European rugby trophy. Maybe African soccer sides could play in some European football trophies.

This would allow European teams to play some amazing teams from far-away lands.

I would love European sides to play African top club sides.

Teams travel big distances in lots of sporting leagues such as in sports leagues in Australia, Russia, the USA, Canada, Brazil, China and India.

In the Super Rugby trophy there was even cross border trophy matches between club sides from Japan, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Argentina.

I think it would be fun to have African club sides in the European trophies. There would not be a jet lag issue. As Africa is on similar time zones to Europe.

I would love Scottish, Welsh or Polish sides to travel to Africa to play top African club sides.

I would love games between top African sides and clubs in Scotland like Aberdeen, Glasgow Celtic and Glasgow Rangers.

There have been many good African club sides such as Al Ahly, Zamalek, ES Tunis, Raja CA, ES Sétif, TP Mazembe, Canon Yaoundé, CARA Brazzaville, Mamelodi Sundowns, Ashanti Gold Sporting Club.

I also have put forward an idea of a Scottish – Africa Cup.

It could even be the other way around with European teams in the African club trophies. Perhaps an Aberdeen, or Glasgow Celtic, Legia Warsaw or AEK Athens could play in the African CAF Champions League, or the CAF Confederation Cup. It would be fun.
