Due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, UEFA extended the exclusion and sanctions on Russian clubs. Officially, clubs from Russia are now banned from the next Champions League competition.
The team affected by this decision is Zenit St. Petersburgas they recently won the league title. Instead, the team which will take their place will be the winner of the Scottish league.
This decision taken by UEFA affects AC Milan in a way. In fact, with Zenit absent from the competition, the Rossoneri club will be able to collect more than 1 million euros than initially planned, reports MilanPress.it.
