Following its decision on April 19, 2021 to establish the “Swiss system,” the UEFA Executive
Committee approved the final format and access list for European club tournaments from
the 2024/25 season in Vienna, after significant consultation with stakeholders in the game.
The key changes are the decrease of the UEFA Champions League phase from ten to
eight matches and the revision of the criteria for granting two of the four additional places
in this tournament by eliminating qualification based on club coefficient ranking. This
judgment reaffirms UEFA’s unwavering belief in open tournaments based on sports merit,
while also acknowledging the need to safeguard national championships.
• The final two spots will be awarded to the organizations whose clubs had the best overall
performance the previous season (total number of points obtained divided by the number
of participating clubs). After the last club qualified for the UEFA Champions League, the
highest ranking club in each association will receive a place in their national tournament.
For example, at the end of the current season, England and the Netherlands are the two
associations that could add a club to the Champions League depending on their clubs’
collective performance. Apart from the final, the UEFA Executive Committee has determined
that all clubs will play in the middle of the week, in acknowledgment of the importance of
domestic fixtures in Europe.
