London's "Chelsea" team this season has been left without a UEFA Champions League tournament and is forced to compete in the Europa League.
However, the "aristocrats" still have very good chances to return to the elite European football tournament next season. "Chelsea" is currently in fourth place in the Premier League, and has also reached the Europa League semi-finals.
London team defender David Luiz, speaking to the "Evening Standard", admitted that he misses the Champions League and said that it is very important for the "Chelsea" team to return to this tournament.
"It is important for our team to return to the Champions League. We are a big club, and such clubs always want to play in this tournament.
I miss the Champions League. It's a wonderful feeling to be in this tournament, to play against the best teams, players, coaches. We all crave it.
It's hard, but we have to understand that last year we didn't do the job properly, so now we feel the consequences," said D. Luiz.
