The International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) has unveiled a new digital platform aimed at providing fans with the latest qualification information and competition news for clubs worldwide vying to compete in the inaugural edition of the FIFA Club World Cup scheduled for 2025.
This platform serves as a comprehensive tool not only for football enthusiasts but also as a reference for media representatives and various stakeholders participating in this new global tournament.
Users will be informed about the identities of clubs that have secured participation and those still vying for qualification to the tournament, which will witness 32 teams competing for the world title and will be hosted by the United States.
The digital tool, available on FIFA’s website, comprises seven different sections.
The main section features a list of all clubs qualified for the tournament, whether through winning continental titles or via their ranking within their respective continents.
Branching from the main section are six secondary sections, each dedicated to a different continental union, offering users the opportunity to delve into the details of each club’s qualification process based on its geographical region.
This new tool provides information on how clubs qualify, including the number of slots allocated to each continental union and the criteria for qualification.
It also covers other aspects related to this modern tournament, which will mark its place in football history as the first edition.
The event is scheduled to take place in the United States from June 15 to July 13, 2025.
Further details regarding the tournament will be announced later in 2024, including all information related to the competition’s format, host cities, visual identity, and the draw.
Notably, the clubs officially qualified for the tournament include Al Ahly SC (Egypt), Wydad Athletic Club (Morocco), Al Hilal FC (Saudi Arabia), Urawa Red Diamonds (Japan), Chelsea FC (England), Real Madrid CF (Spain), Manchester City FC (England), FC Bayern Munich (Germany), Paris Saint-Germain FC (France), FC Internazionale Milano (Italy), FC Porto (Portugal), SL Benfica (Portugal), CONCACAF (North America, Central America, and the Caribbean), Monterrey (Mexico), Seattle Sounders FC (United States), Club León (Mexico), Oceania, Auckland City FC (New Zealand), SE Palmeiras (Brazil), CR Flamengo (Brazil), and Fluminense FC (Brazil).
