However, with Feyenoord beating Roma and Sporting club de Portugal losing at Juventus, it is now official that the Netherlands will maintain sixth spot in the coefficient list. That means two sides from the Eredivisie will automatically make the group stage of the Champions League in the 2024/25 season.
There will also be one Dutch club in the third qualifying round. This is a big success for Dutch football and a huge boost for the Eredivisie.
