RIO DE JANEIRO, July 14 (Xinhua) -- South American football's governing body CONMEBOL is in talks with North and central American counterpart CONCACAF about a unified1 tournament in the mould of Europe's Champions League.
CONCACAF president Jeffrey Webb met with CONMEBOL directors in Sao Paulo earlier this month to discuss the
prospect2 of an annual competition boasting the continent's best clubs.
"Representatives from CONCACAF were here and we
spoke3 about the idea," CONMEBOL's communication manager Nestor Benitez told Lancenet on Saturday."We agreed we would be meeting again to discuss the matter further."CONMEBOL currently has the Copa Libertadores, which features the top sides from South America's domestic leagues. Mexico has also fielded teams in the competition since 1998 despite being a member of CONCACAF.
Elite4 clubs from North and Central America and Caribbean play in the CONCACAF Champions League. But the league is
relatively5 less known compared with the Copa Libertadores, which is broadcasted in more than 130 countries and regions and enjoys huge
marketing6 appeal.
Distance is a major stumbling block in talks with the prospect of 10-hour flights between some cities.
