With the conclusion of the premier league, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea have qualified for next year's Champions League. The remaining Europa League automatic spot was picked by Jose Mourinho's Tottenham Hotspurs who joined Leicester by finishing sixth on the log.

But Wolves and Arsenal could still be in Europe next season. How? Here are the possibilities.

No matter what happens in the Champions League, Europa League and the FA Cup Final next month, European places can only go down as far as seventh.

Fifth place is a guarantee of a European spot but if Manchester City or Chelsea win the Champions League their place will go to another European league.

Equally, if Wolves win the Europa League that qualifies them for the Champions League but English football forfeits the extra Europa League place.

The only way a European place can go down to seventh is if Chelsea win the FA Cup then the Europa League group-stage berth transfers to sixth place in the league, with the place in the qualifying round dropping to seventh.

If Arsenal are triumphant on August 1, then they will earn themselves a place in the UEFA competition - with seventh placed Wolves missing out.


Meanwhile bottom placed Norwich, Watford and AFC Bournemouth have been relegated to the lower tier of the English professional football league-The Championship.
