FIFA has introduced a major overhaul to the Club World Cup, transforming it from an annual event into a quadrennial tournament featuring 32 teams from all continents. The competition will kick off on Sunday, June 15, 2025, and continue for just under a month until the final at MetLife Stadium in New York on July 13, 2025. The revamped format includes a group stage—played as a single round-robin where the top two teams from each group advance to the Round of 16—followed by knockout rounds leading to the semi-finals and final, with no third-place playoff. In addition to the new structure, the tournament will be hosted across 12 stadiums in the USA, including notable venues such as Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, and the Rose Bowl in Los Angeles. The draw for the group stage is scheduled for December 5, 2024, in Miami and will be broadcast free on DAZN, ensuring global accessibility. The tournament is expected to attract many of the world’s biggest clubs and superstars—such as Manchester City, Chelsea, PSG, Lionel Messi with Inter Miami, Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Harry Kane—setting the stage for what promises to be one of the most watched sporting events of 2025.FIFA has introduced a major overhaul to the Club World Cup, transforming it from an annual event into a quadrennial tournament featuring 32 teams from all continents.
