European football fans in Israel can breathe a sigh of relief. Organisers confirmed that top‑tier European club competitions will resume in the country on December 1.
The announcement came from UEFA officials, who said that all major clubs—those who normally play in the Champions League, the Europa League and the Conference League—will be allowed to travel back into Israel. The decision follows a period of uncertainty caused by security concerns that halted matches there earlier in the year.
UEFA explained that they have done a thorough review of the safety situation. They will work with local authorities, clubs and airport staff to make sure every game runs smoothly and that fans and players are protected.
The return to Israel marks an important moment for European football. It will give fans back the chance to watch their clubs in live action and helps the sport’s commercial and sporting calendar return to normal. Most clubs that will be playing next month have already been invited to send squads.
The move is also a signal that the sport’s governing bodies are committed to maintaining football’s global reach, even in tricky political environments. With the competition back, teams can focus on the game, and the Israeli football community can welcome about a thousand travelling supporters to stadiums from the regions around Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and Haifa.
More details will be released by UEFA soon about ticketing, travel arrangements and safety protocols. Fans wishing to attend matches should monitor the official UEFA website and club pages for the latest information.
