The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup will be the 21st edition of the FIFA Club World Cup, an international club association football competition organized by FIFA. The tournament is planned to be the first under an expanded format with 32 teams and will be held in June and July 2025. A previous proposal to expand the tournament to 24 teams in China in 2021 had been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic
Background
FIFA president Gianni Infantino announced the expanded format in December 2022, but the proposal is subject to approval by the six confederations.[4] The proposed expansion was criticized by FIFPRO, a global union of professional players, as well as the World Leagues Forum, which represents professional leagues; both organizations raised concerns about player welfare due to the added fixtures in an already congested playing calendar.[5][6] La Liga - the Spanish top division league - also criticized the plan and said in a statement that it would consider legal action to block the expansion.[7]
