Spain will be represented by 5 teams in the 2025/26 Champions League season.
Idman.biz reports that this was confirmed after the second leg matches of the Europa League quarter-finals.
Lazio lost to Bodo Glimt in the penalty shootout and stopped the fight. Thus, Italy no longer has a chance to surpass Spain in the UEFA ranking.
True, Inter continues to compete in the Champions League, and Fiorentina in the Conference League. But Italy, which currently has 21.187 points, will not be able to surpass Spain, which has 23.250 points. This gives Spain, as the owner of the 2nd place, the 5th ticket. England, which is in 1st place, secured the 5th ticket earlier.
It should be noted that three Spanish clubs continue to compete in the semi-finals. Barcelona continues to compete for the cup in the Champions League, Athletic in the Europa League, and Betis in the Conference League.
