The Premier League and Bundesliga are against the European Club Association's (ECA) plans to form a 'super league' in 2024, German Football League (DFL) president Reinhard Rauball has said.
The ECA is working with UEFA on a proposal to redesign the Champions League and replace it with a competition featuring promotion and relegation that could be largely closed off to outsiders.
La Liga president Javier Tebas has already registered his opposition to the idea and Rauball told reporters in Paris on Tuesday that England and Germany were also against the proposal.
"I'm the president of the German league and president of Borussia Dortmund," he said ahead of Wednesday's FIFA congress in the French capital. "Our league, the Bundesliga, decided 100 per cent that we don't go this way with the ECA.
"[English FA representative] David Gill thinks in the same way. The German and English leagues are opposing it and I don't think it is possible we'll find a solution without Germany and without England."
On Wednesday, the Premier League said its clubs were unanimous in opposition to the proposed UEFA reforms, saying it would be "detrimental to domestic leagues across the continent".
"The clubs have asked the Premier League to now work with UEFA, fans and other stakeholders across Europe, to identify constructive proposals which improve European club competitions without harming domestic football," it said in a statement
Premier League clubs will reiterate these views at the ECA meeting in Malta, which begins on Thursday.
The ECA, led by Juventus chairman Andrea Agnelli, has said so far that talks are at an early stage and denied that the proposal will create a closed league.
The ECA is proposing to create a European league with three divisions, with promotion and relegation between each.
The top division will be the equivalent of the current Champions League and have 32 teams, of which 24 will qualify automatically for the following year's competition with four more promoted from the second tier, currently the Europa League.
If the proposal is implemented, only four top division places will be open to the champions of Europe's 54 domestic leagues, breaking with the longstanding tradition of teams qualifying for European competition via their domestic leagues.
Rauball described the plan as an American-style 'closed shop' that should be resisted.
"This is a typical American kind of competition, a kind of closed shop," he said. "In Europe we have a traditional football pyramid.
"In Germany we have the league with the highest attendances [in Europe], more than 42,000 on average, and that has been developed step by step. So we don't want to destroy it with one decision.
"We are traditionalists... We have to make clear that the national league is most important. If you make a pyramid like the ECA [has proposed], we would destroy all clubs and that's dangerous."
