Barcelona will take centre stage during the ceremony to draw teams for this season's Champions League group stages and award UEFA player of the year prizes for last season, which will be held on 27th August in Monaco, as the 'Azulgranas' are set to receive special recognition for having lifted the European Cup five times.

Barça have reported that they are set to receive a 'Badge of Honour' from European football's governing body for their achievement.

The victory over Juventus in Berlin means that the 'Azulgranas' have now earned entry to a select group of teams that currently includes Real Madrid, Milan, Bayern Munich and Liverpool, for having won the title at least five times, and Ajax, for having won it three times in a row.

UEFA has invited a different player from each Barcelona squad that won a European Cup to receive the award and take part in the draw: Andoni Zubizarreta (1992), Juliano Belletti (2006), Carles Puyol (2009), Eric Abidal (2011) and Andrés Iniesta (2015) will represent the club at the ceremony.
