Will FIFA's New Club World Cup Overtake The Champions League? | Explained

In 2025, FIFA will finally launch their latest competition, with the first edition of the newly-revamped Club World Cup set to take place in the United States during the months of June and July.

That means that the 2023 Club World Cup, due to take place in Saudi Arabia this December, will be the final one in its current format, with the competition expanding from just seven teams to 32, and taking place every four years rather than annually.

And following moves by Saudi Arabia and the USA to rival Europe's dominance in the sport, could FIFA's latest venture become more popular and prestigious than the Champions League in the future? Could we see the next Haaland or Messi joining Al-Hilal or Urawa Red Diamonds in their prime as they look to win the competition?

On today's FD Explained, we take a look behind the curtain at FIFA's bid for dominance in club football.
