As Manchester United and Man City battle it out for the fourth spot for a chance to play in the Champions League next season, there have been questions regarding Liverpool’s role in this battle. Many fans feel confused considering the fact that if Liverpool clinch the European title, it will automatically mark their return to the Champions League. But what about the club that finishes fourth at the end of the season, will they qualify for UCL or not? We have the answer for you right here.
If Jurgen Klopp’s men lift the Europa League, the result will have no impact whatsoever on the top for clubs in the league. Therefore, the Reds will join the top four English clubs in next season’s competition, making it five clubs in total.
However, had Man City progressed to the final of the Champions League and won it, while finishing outside the top four bracket, and Liverpool won the Europa League, then the fourth place would have been at risk. The same incident happened back in 2011/12 when Chelsea won the Europa League and took Spurs’ place, despite the fact that the North Londoners had finished fourth, while the Blues were sixth on the log.
