Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan wants fans to focus on the upcoming Champions League reforms.

Given the failure of the breakaway European Super League, football fans are showcasing their power over some of the biggest clubs in Europe.

But Gundogan believes UEFA's new plans for the Champions League from 2024, which would expand the competition to 36 teams and include more games, are also problematic.

"With all the Super League stuff going on... can we please also speak about the new Champions League format?," Gundogan wrote on Twitter.

"More and more and more games, is no one thinking about us players?

"The new UCL format is just the lesser of the two evils in comparison to the Super League…

"The UCL format right now works great and that is why it's the most popular club competition in the world - for us players and for the fans."
