About this listen
Big clubs in the Premier League, including six English representatives for the first time, are well positioned: Liverpool and City sit among the top seeds, while Chelsea and Tottenham reinforce the English contingent, emphasizing the Premier League’s continued global influence. Across Europe, attention turns to Barcelona, who, under Hansi Flick, aim to end a decade-long wait for another Champions League final. Flick is expected to emphasize young talents like Lamine Yamal, while star veterans including Lewandowski will be crucial to their campaign. PSG, fresh from a dominant treble last season, enter as favorites, but Real Madrid and Manchester City are hot on their heels with blockbuster squads featuring international talent.
In Serie A, Inter Milan and Napoli are off to strong domestic starts, keeping Italian hopes high for deep continental runs. In transfer news, clubs are finalizing late-summer deals ahead of the season’s start, with speculation swirling around emerging stars and potential last-minute moves among Europe’s elite.
UEFA also announced that, starting in 2026, the Champions League final will begin at 6 p.m. CET rather than the traditional late-night slot, a change aimed at improving logistics and fan experience and making broadcasts more accessible for global audiences.
Controversies haven’t escaped the spotlight—with headline discussions about financial fair play and squad registration rules for the new league phase generating debate, while ongoing injury concerns for key players such as Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka and Real Madrid’s Vinicius Jr. are being closely monitored.
