If that was not enough – 2025 Club World Cup in the United States is shaping up not only to be a warmup for the FIFA World Cup a year later, but also one of the most highly anticipated football events of the current four-year cycle. Changing it from a barely known and visible team tourna- ment, FIFA has reshuffled the annual club event to a truly global competition including clubs from each of FIFA’s confederations. This includes some of the world’s most renowned and famous clubs (including Man City, PSG, Bayern Munich, etc) all to make the Club World Cup more visible and more competitive. The goal appears to be to make the Club World Cup trophy as coveted as the World Cup. Stay tuned – there will surely be more to say on this in the next few years!
