UEFA has shortened the name of its third-tier competition from "Europa Conference League" to "Conference League" from the 2024-25 season, European football's governing body said Wednesday.
The 2024 and 2025 finals will be held in Athens and Wroclaw respectively, while Lisbon will host the 2025 Women's Champions League final at Sporting's Estadio Jose Alvalade.
The new Agia Sofia Stadium, home of AEK Athens, will be observed by UEFA officials until this November before confirming the 2024 final there.
