European football governing body, UEFA, have confirmed teams can name up to 12 substitutes on the bench in the final of Champions League and Europa League matches.
The new rules, which will come into action next season, also state that teams can use a fourth substitute in extra-time during the knockout stages.
Clubs may register three new eligible players without any restrictions following the Champions League and Europa League group stages, which is in line with many current domestic league legislatures.
In essence, this means you can play for one team in the group stages and then switch allegiances in the knockout rounds and turn out for another side.
Champions League play-offs, group-stage games, round-of-16 matches, quarter-finals, semi-finals and the final have also been changed to 8pm GMT – 15 minutes later than they are now.
