England is close to a historic achievement, as it could be represented by six teams in the next Champions League season.
This would be the first time that a country has managed to have so many teams in the same edition of the most important club tournament in Europe.
Six teams in the Champions League could be possible thanks to the very good results of two English teams, Manchester United and Tottenham, in the first legs of the Europa League semi-finals.
Their victories bring them closer to an all-English final, where the team that wins this competition will automatically qualify for the Champions League, regardless of their position in the Premier League standings.
England, according to the UEFA coefficient, will be represented by five teams from the championship next season, where in addition to Liverpool and Arsenal who have secured qualification, five other teams are also fighting.
In addition, Manchester United and Tottenham, who are ranked far from the top, have the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League if they win the Europa League.
Both teams are considered favourites for this, having won their first two semi-final matches. United triumphed 0-3 over Athletic Bilbao away, while Tottenham defeated Bodo/Glimt 3-1.
With a possible United-Tottenham final in the Europa League, England would officially have six teams in the Champions League for next season.
