I think the champions are automatic, runners up via the qualifiers
There are a total of 14 rounds in the competition - six qualifying rounds, followed by six further rounds (the "proper" rounds), semi-finals, and the final.
In every season, the top four teams in the English Premier League qualify for the champions league. However, If a team did not qualify at the end of a season, but wins the champions league, then the team in fourth gets knocked out of their qualifying spot for the champions league winners.
