The lineup for the next UEFA Champions League is gradually taking shape. As the 2025-2026 season draws to a close in several European leagues, 20 clubs have already secured their place in the 2026-2027 edition of the prestigious continental competition, which features 36 teams.

In England, Arsenal, Manchester City, and Manchester United are guaranteed a place in the league stage. Inter Milan will represent Italy, while Germany will feature Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, and RB Leipzig, among others.

Spain will be particularly well represented with the qualifications already secured by FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Villarreal CF, Atlético de Madrid and Real Betis.

In France, Paris Saint-Germain will be joined by RC Lens, who have already qualified, while the name of the third French representative remains to be determined.

Outside of the “Big 5”, several national champions have also secured their place for the next European campaign. This is the case for PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord in the Netherlands, FC Porto in Portugal, Galatasaray in Turkey, as well as Shakhtar Donetsk and Slavia Prague, crowned champions in Ukraine and Czechia respectively.

With several places still to be distributed, the coming weeks look decisive for the European clubs still involved in the race for qualification.
