The champion of Serbia from next season directly in the groups of the Champions League !?
Serbian club football could get a direct representative next season in The Champions League, reports the British "Times".
If the Russians continue to be suspended due to the aggression against Ukraine, the champion of Serbia, according to some announcements from UEFA, will probably have a direct place in the Champions League groups next season.
Due to the new situation related to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Russian athletes are banned from participating in numerous international competitions.
- UEFA will probably award another place in the Champions League to the domestic champion with the highest ranking of a country that does not have an automatic qualifying place (and that country is currently Serbia) - writes "Times".
News that is certainly of great interest especially to the fans of Red Star и partisan, the two largest Serbian football clubs. Currently in the strongest Serbian championship after 28 rounds of 75 points each, Partizan and Red Star are in first place.
UEFA are likely to give one extra Champions League spot to the domestic champion with the highest ranking of a country which does not have an automatic qualification place, according to @TimesSport.
