Proof of concept phase. There's nothing spectacular about this right apart from Pique name attached and a few hokey rules.
But I'm going to say it now though, the whole thing has a potentially huge future. Because you are creating a football system that exists outside of FIFA by changing the configurations to something FIFA don't use.
I wanted to do something very very similar (perhaps the source of my bitterness ) over a decade ago in Indonesia.
So think of the Kings League and the Super League. Super League is dead right? But now imagine when Kings League gets traction and massive funding. What's to stop Pique at that stage going "ok we're going to switch to 11 aside". Then later on "FC Barcelona have bought a franchise spot In the Kings League."
You see where this is can go
