Manchester United U21s (champions) and Southampton U21s (8th place) did not take up the opportunity to enter the competition and were replaced by Tottenham Hotspur U21s and Everton U21s, who finished 9th and 10th respectively.{{cite web |url=http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2015-16/aug/030815-pl-international-cup-2015-16-fixtures-released.html |title=2015/16 Premier League International Cup fixtures released |publisher=Premier League |date=3 August 2015 |accessdate=23 December 2015 |archive-date=31 December 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151231124116/http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2015-16/aug/030815-pl-international-cup-2015-16-fixtures-released.html |url-status=dead }} The participation of European sides was achieved through invitation and was influenced by the quality of each club's academy.
