Can the winner of the Norwegian Premier League play in the Champions League? The Norwegian Premier League is Norway's highest level of soccer, and its top teams have the opportunity to qualify for Europe through league results and cup results, so can the Norwegian Premier League champions play in the Champions League? Let's take a look.
The winner of the Norwegian Premier League qualifies for the UEFA Champions League, but needs to start from the qualifying round. According to the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), the winner of the Norwegian Premier League will qualify for the Champions League qualifying rounds for the following season, usually from the second or first round.
This means that the winner of the Norwegian Premier League can go straight to the qualifying stage of the Champions League and compete for a place in the highly competitive Champions League proper. For example, Molde have played in the UEFA Champions League qualifying rounds as Norwegian Premier League champions on several occasions and have sometimes managed to progress to the subsequent stages of the competition.
