UEFA has announced September 2, 2026, as the deadline for clubs to submit their List A squads for the 2026/27 Champions League league phase.

According to the competition’s regulations, clubs must submit and have their squads validated by their respective national associations by 11:59pm CET on Wednesday, September 2.

Teams can register a maximum of 25 players on List A, with at least two required to be goalkeepers. At least eight of the 25 spots must be allocated to locally trained players, while no more than four of those places can be occupied by association-trained players.

Clubs with fewer than eight locally trained players will have their squad limit reduced accordingly.
