Huge changes are set be made to the way the Champions League is formed from 2024 onwards.
Last year, at a similar time to when the European Super League fiasco was announced, UEFA unveiled plans for the Champions League to be made up of 36 clubs from the 2024/25 season onwards. Currently, 32 teams make up the competition and it is a format that has worked so well for numerous years.
However, the changes are expected to be ratified at a UEFA Executive Committee meeting in just a few weeks' time on May 10. Should they get the seal of approval they are expected to, the number of group stage matches in the competition for each club will increase from six to ten.
