From next season, clubs that reach the Super Cup and the finals of the Champions League and Europa League will be able to have 12 substitutes on the bench, up from the usual seven. In a statement, UEFA said this will give "coaches more flexibility regarding substitutes, and facilitate their squad management for the most important fixture of the season".
