Which Italian Serie A team qualified for the UEFA Champions League next season?

Italian football’s recent resurgence reminded us of the old days when the Scudetto reigned supreme as the biggest league in Europe.

The 2022/23 campaign witnessed three Italian teams (Milan, Inter, and Napoli) advancing to the Quarterfinals. Eventually, two got to the semi-finals as Inter and AC Milan set up the Milan derby, with Nerazzurri going to the finals.

The Champions League followed a series of qualifying rounds before the group stages proper. All four Italian teams automatically advanced to the group stages according to UEFA club coefficients.

However, the lowest-ranked teams will begin the qualifying series, which starts with the Preliminary, first, second, and third rounds before advancing to the group stages.
