Club World Cup 2025 - Who’s going?

[TheGhost]

Not even sure FIFA know at the moment

FIFA haven’t sold the TV rights yet. Apple are the only bidder so far. They only bid 1/5 of what FIFA were expecting to receive for the rights. This has created a huge financial black hole as FIFA have promised £X millions to each team to compete and don’t know how they’re going to pay for it. They’ve not even chosen the host city/stadiums yet.
It’s madness bearing in mind the tournament is 10 months away.

All seems a bit daft to me. If it was just a club world cup every 4 years it would make it interesting

I mean, that is literally what it is.

City reposted a video from FIFA which was basically the FIFA Club World Cup and tomorrow’s date.

Could be wrong but wouldn't expect a draw until December, after the Copa Libertadores final. The final South American side and US team are still to be confirmed.

Hopefully they will at least announce the venues

was talking about this with my mates at the weekend - I'm in Vegas for my 60th in May before it kicks off so (unless I get royally taken to the cleaners at the casinos) I'm considering whether a week in the USA later in the summer could be on the cards...

Probably announcing who the American team is or some shit.
