I heard a rumor at school that sometime in the future the champion of the MLS will be allowed to participate in the CL. Is this true? No need to shoot me down either if this is just a lie. I just wanted some opinions from the most reliable source i know.
Thanks
Full Version: I Have A Cl Question?
Never happening, possibly the world club championships but certainly not the CL.
Champions League is only for the top teams in Europe but the MLS is in North America. World Club Cup championship, yes but Champions League is certainly not possible like what K2. said.
Never gonna happen. Although there are, for example, turkish clubs in UCL and last time i checked Turkey isn't part of Europe. (Excluding half of istanbul.)
well, it is called the <<<<UEFA>>>> Champions League.
so it doesnt make sense for any teams outside of Europe to be involved.
That's weird about Turkey, but who cares cuz its not like they're competing.

ISRAEL MEMBERSHIP
According to the UEFA Statutes, in exceptional circumstances, a national football association that is situated in another continent may be admitted for membership, provided that it is not a member of the Confederation of that continent, or of any other Confederation, and that FIFA approves its membership of UEFA.
Due to the tense political situation in this particular part of the world in the beginning of the 1990s, Israel asked for its affiliation to UEFA. Its clubs were not given the chance to participate in club competitions under the umbrella of the Asian Football Confederation as most of the Arab countries objected to meeting Israeli teams. In an effort to contribute to the development of football and to give an opportunity to as many people as possible to enjoy the game, the UEFA Executive Committee decided to accept the affiliation request.
This was done in three steps:
- 19 September 1991 in Montreux, Switzerland: Admission of teams from Israel in European Clubs competitions.
- 19 September 1993 in Cyprus: The UEFA Executive Committee agrees on a provisory admission of the Football Association of Israel (IFA).
- 28 April 1994 in Vienna, Austria: The UEFA Congress agrees on a definite admission of the IFA to UEFA.
