The Association of European Leagues on Friday asked UEFA for a more even distribution of Champions League revenue and a broader spread of places in the competition.

After the association of 35 European leagues met in Frankfurt, vice-president Claus Thomsen, from Denmark, called for "a fair and democratic club competition model."
They also want more money to go "to support the development of professional football in medium and small countries all across Europe, including non-top tier leagues."
