2025–26 UEFA Conference League

The 2025–26 UEFA Conference League was the fifth season of the UEFA Conference League, Europe's tertiary club football tournament organised by UEFA. This was the second UEFA Conference League played under a new format involving a 36-team league phase. The new format also did not allow teams to transfer from the Europa League to the Conference League from the league phase onwards, and thus the Conference League titleholders (Chelsea) were unable to defend their title, as the winner of the Conference League automatically qualified for the Europa League league phase.
