Tottenham is the latest team to have joined Liverpool in next season’s Champions League after beating Manchester United in the Europa League final.

A nervy final in Bilbao saw Brennan Johnson open the scoring with a scrappy goal in the first half.

Despite being penned in their own half for much of the rest of the game, Ange Postecoglou's side managed to hold on for the victory.

Their victory means they have booked their place in next season’s Champions League, despite a poor Premier League campaign that will see them finish just above the relegation zone.

They do of course join Liverpool again at Europe’s top table, with Arne Slot’s team the first English side to have secured their spot in next season’s competition, having run away with the league title.

The Reds will be targeting a seventh European Cup as they look to better their last-16 exit at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain this season, and already they know a lot of their potential opponents.

2025/26 Champions League confirmed teams

So far, 24 teams of the 36 teams that will make up next season's League Phase have been confirmed.

Tottenham is the latest to be confirmed, joining fellow Premier League sides Liverpool and Arsenal.

All five spots from Spain have been decided, with Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Athletic Bilbao and Villarreal all confirmed.

Liverpool was the first English side to secure a place in next season's Champions League after winning the Premier League title.

The winners of this season's Champions League - one of Inter Milan or PSG - will be the only side guaranteed to be in pot one.

Liverpool is likely to be among the top seeds in the competition - indeed, out of the 24 teams currently qualified, the Reds are ranked third in terms of their coefficient.

In any case, Arne Slot and his men will know they can't face any of the other five English sides that will be involved until the knockout stages, which does potentially make it more likely they will face more of Europe's big guns next season.
