Organized in Paris this Thursday, the UEFA congress will not lack issues. If the Super League, at the heart of a huge debate on the football planet, and the future of Aleksander Ceferin at the head of the body will be discussed in particular by the various leaders present, this Parisian summit will also be an opportunity to ‘carry out the draw for the next League of Nations. Who will succeed Portugal, France and Spain on the list of winners of this recent competition? Crowned in 2021 but disappointing during the 2022-2023 edition, the Blues of Didier Deschamps (twelfth for their last participation) will not be seeded and can therefore come up against very heavy stuff. As a reminder, hat 1 of League A is made up of the four participants from the last Final Four with the Spanish title holder, the Croatian finalist, Italy and the Netherlands.

In hat 2, we find Cristiano Ronaldo’s Portugal, Belgium, Denmark and Hungary, carried by its star Dominik Szoboszlai. If France will avoid, whatever happens, Switzerland, Germany and Poland (the three other nations in hat 3), Kylian Mbappé’s teammates will also face one of the four selections present in the hat 4, namely Israel, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia or Scotland. In addition to League A, this meeting will also make it possible to determine the groups of the three other divisions (Leagues B, C and D). Note that the 54 UEFA member associations participating in the league stage have been divided into four leagues based on their results in the 2022/2023 UEFA Nations League. The teams were subsequently divided into hats, again based on their ranking in the 2022/23 UEFA Nations League.
