This is the last season with the current format of 32 teams in the group stage. UEFA has announced a new format for the next edition, and because of this change, no clubs from the Champions League can move to the Europa League group stage, and future winners won't be able to defend their title.[1][2]
As the current champions, Sevilla has already qualified for the 2023–24 UEFA Champions League.
