As per UEFA, three out of the 24 spots at UEFA EURO 2024 will be filled by play-off spots via the 2022/23 Nations League. “Twelve teams will be selected based on their performance in the 2022/23 Nations League – nominally the group winners of Leagues A, B and C, but if they have already qualified, they will be replaced by the next best-ranked team in their league. If there are not enough non-qualified teams in the same league, then it filters down to the next league, finishing with League D,” explained UEFA.
