Which leagues are those then?


Bundesliga and La Liga have 2nd/reserve teams in their system. Until the advent of a national 3rd league,  reserve teams could play in the 2nd Bundesliga. I think reserve teams can play in the 2nd tier in Spain. I think in both instances the reserve team and 1st team can't be in the same league as each other, so can't be promoted if 1st team is in league above or get dropped a division if 1st team get relegated to the same level.

It's also quite common in Eastern Europe. Off the top of my head I'm pretty sure that the Czech, Romanian, and Ukrainian leagues all have reserve teams in the league system, for instance (yay, I learnt something playing Football Manager)
