The upcoming 2026/27 season promises to be a historic one for UEFA’s men’s club competitions, with 16 new clubs set to compete in the league phase or group stage for the first time, including Inter Club d’Escaldes, who will become the first Andorran side to feature.
But let’s not forget the season just gone, with 2025/26 providing some brilliant moments across all three men’s club competitions.
From Paris Saint-Germain’s repeat success in the Champions League to glory for Aston Villa in the Europa League and a historic first European trophy for Crystal Palace in the Conference League, there is plenty to look back on.
Off the pitch, the league phase format has broadened each competition’s reach, with huge audience numbers across streaming and broadcast channels, while social and marketing campaigns deepened fan engagement. This is, of course, what makes each competition so attractive to sponsors, who bring fans closer to the action through innovative activations.
Out now, our three Season Reviews recap the highlights from all three competitions while showcasing the extensive work done to ensure that every club has the chance to shine.
