Everton Faces Shocking Europa League Ban – Could UEFA Rules Cost Them Their Spot?
Roma, meanwhile, are sixth in Serie A, which as things stand would see them qualify for the Conference League, but they are just three points shy of the Champions League positions.
It means the two clubs could yet avoid each other, but La Repubblica reports that if both qualify for the same competition, one will be demoted.
The report adds that the situation is “under close scrutiny” at UEFA, whose rules strictly prohibit two teams with the same owner meeting in European competition.
The deadline for clubs with the same owners to provide proof of restructuring at board level, such as by relinquishing a majority stake in one of the clubs they own, is thought to be March 1.
