UEFA has renamed its third-tier competition from “Europa Conference League” to “Conference League” starting from the 2024-25 season, European football’s governing body said Wednesday.
Recall West Ham won the last edition after defeating Fiorentina by 2-1 at the final last season.
The 2024 and 2025 finals will be held in Athens and Wroclaw respectively, while Lisbon will host the 2025 Women’s Champions League final at Sporting’s Estadio Jose Alvalade.
The new Agia Sofia Stadium, home of AEK Athens, will be observed by UEFA officials until this November before confirming the 2024 final there.
The UEFA Europa Conference League will be renamed as the UEFA Conference League from the 2024/25 season, it has been announced.
European club football’s third-tier competition was launched in 2021 to increase UEFA’s offering beyond the Champions League and Europa League. It has overcome some criticism to produce two entertaining campaigns, with Roma and West Ham providing high-profile winners.
