The European Football Association (UEFA) in this case has presented the ranking with national leagues, and not for national teams, as can be understood in the article of "GazetaBlic.com". (see here)
Below you can find the description of this ranking published by UEFA, translated into Albanian, which explains that this relates to teams from the leagues of European countries.
UEFA coefficients are based on the performance of clubs in European competitions over a five-year period. During these five years, match results (2 points for a win and 1 point for a draw) are awarded from the group stage of the CL, EL, and ECL onwards. However, in the knockout round after the EL group stage and the ECL group stage and before the round of 16, match results count towards the country ranking, but not towards the club ranking.
