As the domestic seasons come to a close across Europe, and the final of the prestigious UEFA Champions League to be played on 24th May, its time for a peek into the draw pot for the 2014-15 UEFA Champions League. What makes the next season special is that all the clubs will have to comply with the UEFA Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations to participate in the tournament. Another first: A team from Gibraltar would be taking part, as the Gibraltar Football Association is now the 54th UEFA member.
