Liverpool are in line to secure their place at the expanded Club World Cup championships in 2025 as FIFA reportedly draw up new plans for qualification.
The international tournament, which was contested for the first time in 2000, sees the winners of each confederation's premier competition face off in a mini-tournament and is due to expand from its current four-team format to a 32-team competition in two years' time.
According to the Times, FIFA are exploring the idea of awarding places to European sides based on their UEFA coefficient ranking, with the remaining four spots awarded to the winners of the Champions League from 2022 to 2025.
