Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham will find themselves in Pot 2 for the Champions League draw later this summer.
There is no room for the three Premier League clubs among the top seeds, although English champions Manchester City have a place among the continent's elite. Pot 1 is occupied by Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt as the respective holders of the Champions League and Europa League, as well as the champions of the continent's top six leagues.
These include City from the Premier League, AC Milan from Serie A, Bayern Munich from the Bundesliga, Paris Saint-Germain from Ligue 1 and Porto from the Primeira Liga. As Real Madrid won the La Liga and Champions League double, the eighth spot in Pot 1 goes to Ajax as the Eredivisie champions.
