MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - UEFA has requested that the Madrid court judge presiding over the European Super League case recuse himself and has also filed an appeal with a higher court in the Spanish capital regarding what it called "significant irregularities".

On Monday, UEFA said it had nullified disciplinary action against breakaway Super League clubs Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus after the Madrid court's July ruling that European football's governing body should not sanction the rebel clubs.
