UEFA sets September 2 deadline for Champions League squad registration

UEFA has announced a September 2 deadline for clubs to submit their List A squads for the 2026/27 Champions League league phase. Each club can register a maximum of 25 players, with at least two goalkeepers and eight locally trained players, defined as club-trained or association-trained players. List B allows unlimited registrations subject to eligibility requirements, and players from previous UEFA competitions can be transferred to another club during the league phase. Further squad changes are allowed for clubs advancing to the knockout phase by February 4, 2027.
