However, since the two finalists, Barcelona and Sevilla, both qualified for the 2016–17 UEFA Champions League, respectively by winning the 2015–16 La Liga title and the 2015–16 Europa League, the cup winner's place in the 2016–17 Europa League group stage instead passed to the fifth-place team in La Liga, Athletic Bilbao.

The 2022–23 Copa del Rey was the 121st staging of the Copa del Rey, the oldest official football competition in Spain. The winners of the competition would have automatically qualified for the 2023–24 UEFA Europa League group stage; however, as Real Madrid had already qualified for European competition via league standings, their place was passed down to the sixth-placed team in La Liga and the UEFA Europa Conference League spot reserved for the sixth-placed team was awarded to the team who finished seventh in the league. Both the winners and runners-up qualified for the four-team 2024 Supercopa de España.
The 1927 unofficial Copa del Rey was a one-off friendly international football tournament held in Madrid in May 1927, and which was contested by Real Madrid, Motherwell, and Swansea City. It was organized by the RFEF as a post-season unofficial edition of the Copa del Rey, and it was won by Motherwell, who defeated Madrid 3–1 in the final at Estadio Chamartín. The Scottish team thus won the so-called Copa del Oro, a special version of the Copa del Rey trophy that was specially made to reward the winning team of this tournament, and which was donated by King Alfonso XIII.
