The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup features more teams than ever before in a new expanded format.

For the first time, 32 clubs from across the globe will get the chance to take home the FIFA Club World Cup trophy in 2025. Teams from AFC, CAF, Concacaf, OFC and UEFA will touch down in the United States and compete in the inaugural edition of the tournament next summer.

Participating clubs secured their spot in the tournament through various qualifications routs, like topping the UEFA Champions League or the CAF Champions League within the last four years. Others punched their ticket to the USA through each of their club rankings from 2021 to 2024.

The last two winners of the competition, Manchester City and Real Madrid, headline the long list of qualified clubs looking to add one more piece of silverware to their trophy cabinets.
