What is the new Champions League format for the 2024-25 season?

The Champions League as we know it is nearing to the end. Once the final whistle is blown in Wembley on Saturday, June 1 for the 2023-24 Champions League final, the competition will undergo a huge format revamp.

UEFA approved plans back in April 2021 that would see not only the format of Europe's elite club competition altered, but would also see the number of teams taking part increased and see the competition adopt a 'tennis-style' seeding for the knockout stages.

Premier League clubs could also be set to benefit from the expanded set up following confirmation that up to five teams would be able to qualify for the competition through their league position.

For that to happen, English clubs competing across all UEFA competitions would have to go deep into their respective European competitions.

So what exactly does it mean for the Champions League to now be a 'Swiss-style league' and what can we expect in the future? Mail Sport has all the details of the future of the competition.
