Key Takeaways

• Final dates for Ajax and Twente in the European Conference and League.
• Ajax and Twente face deadlines for player registration in the European Conference League and Europa League, with rosters must be submitted by July 17 with players able to be added until July 22.
• Marcos Leonardo remains central to Ajax's plans.

Ajax, as winners of the play-off, is preparing to enter the second round of the European Conference League, while FC Twente will start in the same round, but in the Europa League, after finishing last season in fourth place in the Dutch League. The matches are scheduled to be played on July 23 and 30.

Ajax will face the team that loses from the match between Ferencvarosi and FK Vojvodina, while Twente will meet the winner of this encounter.

UEFA sets the same rules for both the European Conference League and the Europa League. Clubs must submit A and B lists of players, as the B list can be modified during the season, which includes young players from the club's academy. While the A-list is more important, comprising up to 25 players, UEFA has set specific deadlines for these lists.

The first deadline for both clubs to submit their roster for Round 2 is 17 July, at 23:59. UEFA must receive a list of players that has been approved by the club and the association. The A-list must also include information such as full name, date of birth, shirt number, nationality, and registration date, as well as details about the head coach and first assistant, as well as the approval of the team doctor, to prove that all registered players have undergone a medical examination.

With the important deadline approaching for Ajax and Twente, the clubs have the opportunity to add more players to the A list ahead of the matches. After 17 July, both Ajax and Twente can add new players up to one day before the first match of the second round, i.e. until 22 July at 23:59. This could be of particular importance for Ajax if players such as Marcos Leonardo and Marc-Andre ter Stegen are signed after the deadline.

It should be noted that the extra deadline only applies to the first match of the round, and clubs cannot register an additional player after the first leg.

UEFA requires clubs to prove that new players registered have work permits. Since this bureaucratic process takes time, it may happen that new players are not able to register for the second round due to not receiving the work permit on time.

The A-list consists of a maximum of 25 players, of which 8 must be local players who were trained at the club. An example of this is Daley Blind, who is considered a local player, while Caio Henrique does not fit this classification. List A must also include at least two goalkeepers.

List B consists of players born on or after 1 January 2005, who have been eligible to play for the club for a minimum of two consecutive seasons. List B can include an unlimited number of players, but must be submitted to UEFA before each match.

If Ajax and/or Twente can qualify for the next round, there will be a new deadline for the third round, which is July 31, while the potential finals date will be August 14. An additional deadline of one day was also set before the first match of the round.

What happens next

After the deadline on July 17, Ajax and Twente can add players to their rosters until July 22. This gives clubs an opportunity to strengthen their ranks ahead of the second round ties, which could have a significant impact on their performance in the European Conference League and Europa League.
