The Premier League is set to have five Champions League places on a regular basis after Uefa announced it has scrapped its controversial plan to give places to the two clubs with the highest ranking.

Instead, from 2024, Uefa will award two spots to the countries whose clubs have performed best in European competition that season. Under this system England would have gained an extra place in four of the last five seasons – if applied this season it would have been England and the Netherlands, and last season England and Spain.

Good news for us, especially with the potential arrival of Newcastle in a few years time. We need all the CL spaces we can.
