England and Spain have now confirmed their place in the top two of the 2024/25 association club coefficients and are therefore assured of next season's European Performance Spots. Here we track which clubs are set to claim an extra league phase place as a result.

Last updated: 09:00 CET on Monday 28 April

What are the European Performance Spots?

As happened last year under the new format of the European club competitions, the European Performance Spots go to the associations with the best collective performance by their clubs at the end of the current season's UEFA men's club competitions (i.e. the association club coefficient from the season just completed, which is based on the total number of club coefficient points obtained by each club from an association, divided by the number of clubs from that association, in accordance with Annex D on the competition regulations).

Those two associations will each earn one automatic place in the league phase ("European Performance Spot") for the club ranked next-best in their domestic league behind those clubs that have already qualified directly for the league phase.

Which associations would benefit from the European Performance Spots as it stands?

England and Spain have now both confirmed their place in the top two of the 2024/25 association club coefficients and therefore earned next season's European Performance Spots.

2024/25 association club coefficients

1. England: 187.750 points / seven clubs = 26.821 average
2. Spain: 162.750 points / seven clubs = 23.250 average
3. Italy: 169.500 points / eight clubs = 21.187 average
4. Germany: 147.375 points / eight clubs = 18.421 average
5. France: 118.000 points / seven clubs = 16.857 average
6. Portugal: 81.250 points / five clubs = 16.250 average
7. Belgium: 78.250 points / five clubs = 15.650 average
8. Netherlands: 91.500 points / six clubs = 15.250 average
9. Greece: 50.750 points / four clubs = 12.687 average
10. Norway: 47.250 points / four clubs = 11.812 average

Which clubs would take the European Performance Spots as it stands?

Chelsea and Villarreal would currently each claim an automatic league phase place via the European Performance Spots.

Both associations have four automatic league phase spots for the 2025/26 campaign, meaning the teams that finish in the top four in both the Premier League and La Liga standings will be assured of places in the league phase.

Each association's European Performance Spot would therefore go to the team in fifth position in their respective league table.
