JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — FIFA says the first edition of the expanded FIFA Club World Cup in the United States will be staged from June 15 to July 13, 2025. The 32-team tournament will officially be called Mundial de Clubes and will be “harmoniously aligned with the International Match Calendar” to ensure there would be enough of a gap between the final and the start of domestic leagues. An annual tournament called the Coupe Intercontinentale de la FIFA will be played from 2024 between the Champions League winner and the winner of an intercontinental play off between clubs from the other soccer confederations.
