UEFA League Rankings: Premier League tops the chart, Serie A moves to second
After Man City won the Champions League and West Ham United secured the Europa Conference League, England (Premier League) tops the rankings. Italy (Serie A) takes a long jump and secures 2nd position, after all of their clubs were in the European finals this season. But, they were unable to win any of them.
Many fans were unsatisfied with the rankings for years, and wanted Portugal, Belgium and Netherlands’ league to be presented properly.
Portugal (Liga Portugal), Belgium (Belgian Pro League), Switzerland (Swiss Super League) and Turkey (Süper Lig) make up the rest of the top 10, Germany (Bundesliga) also climb to 3rd spot.
Spain (LaLiga) drops to 4th, as only Sevilla were able to won a UEFA trophy. Rest of the clubs were out early in the European competitions, and that hampered their position.
