UEFA’s Surprising Qualifying Shake-Up: Could This Revolutionize Soccer Forever?
According to The Times, UEFA’s general secretaries from all 55 European federations were briefed on the potential shake-up during a recent meeting in Málaga. The discussions reportedly focused on balancing competitiveness, financial fairness, and audience appeal — three areas where the current system has started to fall short.
“Broadcast revenues and fan engagement around international qualifiers have been going down, but they have been going up in the Nations League,” a UEFA source explained. “It’s been looked at before, but it’s very difficult to find the right formula — one that keeps jeopardy for the big nations while still giving smaller teams opportunities.”
