UEFA offer Europa winners Champions league spot

Good news for Europa League winners. UEFA will announce on Friday that the winners of the Europa League will qualify for the Champions League - from 2015 onwards.

The move is to boost to Europe's second-tier competition and could mean five English teams playing in the Champions League.

Simply put what befell Tottenham Hotspur in 2011-12, when they missed out on Europe despite finishing fourth because Chelsea won the Champions League and finished sixth, would not happen again. Instead, England would now have five representatives.
