Liverpool will compete in the Europa League during the 2023/24 season after Manchester United secured a top-four Premier League finish with a victory over Chelsea.
Goals from Casemiro, Anthony Martial, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford earned Erik Ten Hag's team a 4-1 win over the Londoners on Thursday night at Old Trafford. And it ensured Liverpool would be unable to leapfrog their Premier League foes on the final day of the season when they take on already-relegated Southampton at St Mary's.
For Jurgen Klopp's side,. it is the first time they have missed out on qualification to Europe's premier competition in the seven full seasons since the German succeeded Brendan Rodgers in October 2015. In that time, Liverpool have reached three Champions League finals, while adding a sixth European Cup to the Anfield annals with a victory over Tottenham Hotspur at the Wanda Metropolitano in June 2019.
