MN: Milan’s current UEFA ranking and what it means for the 2024-25 Champions League draw | OneFootball

The UEFA ranking has once again updated after the two Champions League semi-final first legs, and the picture is beginning to look more clear regarding where AC Milan will fit into the draw for next season.

As MilanNews writes, what is certain is that Milan will begin the 2024-25 season in 29th place in the UEFA club coefficient ranking, which means they are hovering between the second and third pots ahead of the next Champions League.

We explained all the changes to the format in a feature, but the main alteration is the shift away from the current format’s group stage system. The present Champions League group stage includes 32 participants divided into eight groups of four.

From the 2024-25 season, 36 clubs will participate in the Champions League league phase (former group stage), giving four more sides entry into a single league competition with one big table.

Among the teams ahead of the Rossoneri in the club ranking are Chelsea, Manchester United, Sevilla, Villarreal, Napoli, Porto, Atalanta, West Ham, Ajax and Eintracht Frankfurt, but they are set to miss out on the UCL. Meanwhile, Benfica, Club Brugge and Rangers would be expected to qualify through the play-offs.

That means that 10 teams ahead of Milan are currently on course to miss out, which means Milan would be the 19th-highest team in the draw. They could rise if further teams miss out or there are some shocks in the play-offs.
