New Champions League Format To Carry On 'without Compromising Player Health', Claims UEFA Chief
New Champions League: A lot of concern surrounds the 2024/25 Champions League as the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), the regulating body of the tournament, has introduced a new format which drastically changed the format of the competition.
The number of teams has been increased to 36 from the original 32, a change that has seen the number of games during the course of the tournament increase to 189 matches compared to the previous 125. The players have publicly spoken about the increased workload of the teams, claiming it could lead to injuries.
UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin acknowledged the fully packed match calendar and emphasised UEFA's close collaboration with stakeholders to balance competitive expansion and safeguarding players' well-being.
