Atalanta's coronation offers Italian clubs a 6th place in C1

Atalanta won the first European trophy in its history this evening by winning the Europa League against Bayer Leverkusen. 3-0, the slap was monumental for the club coached by Xabi Alonso. But this result will also have an impact on the next Champions League. Winner of the C3, the Dea is guaranteed to compete in the C1.

Except that it is already one of the five Serie A teams benefiting from a ticket for the next edition of the big ears cup. Consequence: if Gasperini’s club ends its season in 5th place, the qualifying place for the C1 play-offs will go to 6th in the ranking, namely AS Roma. Next season, Italy could therefore have six clubs qualified for the Champions League.
