UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin announced on September 5 that the meeting, originally scheduled for September 11, would be postponed indefinitely.
The summit was set to bring together the European Club Association (ECA) and European Leagues, which represents leagues from across the continent, to discuss the ECA's proposal for a competition reportedly spread over three 'divisions'.
The proposal, pushed by ECA president Andrea Agnelli, has faced fierce opposition from several top European leagues, including the Premier League, Serie A, and Bundesliga.
According to reports, the top division would be made up of four groups of eight teams, with the top six in each qualifying for the following edition regardless of where they finish in their domestic leagues.
"We are currently in the process of gathering feedback from our national associations and I feel -- more generally -- that a new discussion now would be premature as we are analysing feedback and proposals coming from different parties," Ceferin wrote in a letter to Agnelli and head of European Leagues Lars-Christer Olsson.
Ceferin added that he did not "expect to make a decision this year" on the changes to the format of European club competition from 2024.
