Champion's League: Teams that will not compete in the next season have been announced by UEFA.

Russian clubs will be barred from competing in the Champions League and other European club competitions next season, according to UEFA.

In a statement released on Monday, the football governing body confirmed the news.

"In the 2022/23 season, Russia will have no affiliated clubs competing in UEFA club tournaments," it stated.

Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February this year, UEFA suspended Russian clubs and national teams "until further notice."

On Monday, the Russian team's exclusion from the Women's European Championship, which will be held in England in July, was announced.

Portugal, who lost to Russia in a qualifying playoff, will be in Group C with the Netherlands, Sweden, and Switzerland, the 2019 World Cup runners-up.

Russia's bid to host the 2028 or 2032 European Championships is also "ineligible," according to UEFA.
