FIFA president Gianni Infantino has announced that the United States of America will host the first 32-team FIFA Club World Cup tournament.
Currently, the Club World Cup is a seven-team tournament that sees the Champions League winners from each confederation, plus the host nation's league champions, compete for the trophy. However, the 2023 edition in Saudi Arabia will be the last under this format.
From 2025, 32 teams will enter the tournament. In Europe, 12 clubs will qualify including the last four Champions League winners who are Chelsea, Real Madrid, Manchester City and next season's winners.
