UEFA Club Competition Performances

UEFA Club competitions are one of the largest success stories within sport. At the top end, the knock-out stages of the UEFA Champions League are widely recognised as the “best of the best” when it comes to world football and this is not just a marketing slogan. However the success reaches much deeper into the European football ecosystem. This century there have already been more than 800 different clubs that have participated in the UEFA Champions League or Europa League and it should never be underestimated how much additional value and meaning the ‘Race for Europe’ adds each year to every top tier domestic league and national cup competition. The introduction of the UEFA Europa Conference League has added 20% more opportunities for clubs and players to taste European football.
