The FIFA Club World Cup 2025 is set to redefine the summer soccer scene. This expanded edition, hosted in the U.S. for the first time, will gather 32 teams from across the globe to compete for a share of an impressive $1 billion prize fund.
Many prominent teams are confirmed participants in this new-look tournament, ranging from European giants like UEFA Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, and Manchester City, to South American powerhouses like Boca Juniors and Palmeiras. The competition structure sees 12 teams from Europe, 6 from South America, 4 each from Asia and Africa, 5 from North America (including three MLS clubs), and one team from Oceania (Auckland City, the only amateur side).
While the ultimate goal is victory for all, the stakes and expectations vary. Underdogs such as Lionel Messi`s Inter Miami and Simone Inzaghi-led Al-Hilal will look to make a statement against the heavily favored European sides. Meanwhile, teams like Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Inter Milan are among those expected to contend for the final trophy.
