UEFA are considering another change to the Champions League format after only introducing a major revamp of the competition this season.
Europe's premier club competition ditched group stages this season in place of a league phase for the first round.
This change added two matchdays to the European calendar with clubs facing eight different opponents across as many matches in an attempt to try and qualify for the round of 16 by finishing in the top eight of 36 teams. Teams ranked ninth to 24th battle it out in a knockout round to join the other eight clubs in the final 16.
