Does anybody know what happens with direct qualification to Champions League if both the Europa League winners and runners up have already qualified for the Champions League through their league standings? Who then gets that spot for the Champions League? Does a semi final team then get it?

It works off league placings, runners up in cups get nothing

This explains it pretty well

interesting question..

with your hypothetical, i think the leagues that the finalists represent are strengthened in their european rankings..

every league is allotted a certain number of champion's league spots for the top clubs in their respected leagues..
the higher the ranking, the more UCL spots the league has available for teams to fight for throughout the seasons..

maybe another team is added to the pool of the qualifying rounds to play for a champion's league spot..

does liverpool get to play for a UCL spot for being in the final? i dunno

the next teams in line would be those that finished below the qualification group ie most leagues have top three or top four places to qualify in england its the top four so say the champions win the next team would be the 5/6 places

So let me get this straight. Just say Liverpool had won the Europa and had also finished in top 4. Does this then mean that their Champions League spot from the Europa win would go to the 5th placed Spanish team because the Spanish league is ranked number one? Is this correct?
