Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>FIFA on Friday announced a new expanded format for the Club World Cup with 32 teams from 2025.<\/p>\n

“For men’s football, an expanded 32-team FIFA Club World Cup is set to begin in June 2025 (following the postponement of the original 24-team tournament planned for 2021) and will take place every four years,” FIFA said in a statement.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2000, the FIFA Club World Cup is generally played in Northern Hemisphere winter with six or seven teams from six confederations.<\/p>\n

Alongside the host nation’s national champions, the reigning champions of Asia, Africa, North, and Central America, South America, Oceania, and Europe join to play a straight knockout tournament in every Club World Cup.<\/p>\n

The current 2021 champions are Chelsea.<\/p>\n

Real Madrid won the Club World Cup four times to be the record holder.<\/p>\n

Morocco will host the 2022 edition in February 2023.<\/p>\n
