As European cup competitions resume, the UEFA club rankings take center stage once again. With Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League matches kicking off, let’s examine the current standings for European club teams according to UEFA coefficients.
Over the next three days, Italy will field eight teams across these competitions: Atalanta, Bologna, Inter, Juventus, and Milan in the Champions League; Lazio and Roma in the Europa League; and Fiorentina in the Conference League. These clubs aim to improve both their individual rankings and Italy’s overall standing.
Calciomercato report how In the country rankings, Italy currently holds second place with 80 points, trailing England (91 points) but ahead of Spain (74 points) and Germany (72 points). The top two nations at the season’s end will earn the right to send a fifth team to the 2025-26 Champions League.
With the expansion of the tournament, UEFA has granted the top two nations in the ranking an additional team slot. The regulations remain unchanged for the current season across all European competitions: the top two countries in the seasonal UEFA ranking (determined by wins, draws, and progression through stages) receive an extra place in the following season’s Champions League.
Among individual clubs, Italy boasts two teams in the top 10 and an impressive nine in the top 100 of the UEFA club rankings. This strong showing across multiple teams strengthens Italy’s position as it competes for that coveted fifth Champions League spot in the coming seasons.
