New format and scale: The tournament will feature 32 teams from 6 continental confederations. Teams will be divided into 8 groups of 4 teams each, playing a round robin. The top two teams in each group will advance to the round of 16 and continue to compete in a knockout format.

Why the change? The move to a four-year cycle and expansion of the number of participating teams is intended to increase the competitiveness, prestige and commercial value of the tournament, making it a truly global event.

Huge prize money: The total prize fund is expected to reach 2.5 billion euros (about 2.7 billion USD), with significant participation fees and bonuses increasing based on performance, providing a great incentive for clubs.

Eligibility: Qualifying teams are typically the winners of the continent's top club competition (e.g. UEFA Champions League) during the 2021-2024 period, or have achieved a high ranking in their confederation during the same period.

Where to watch the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 in Vietnam? Viewers in Vietnam can watch all matches of the tournament live and exclusively on FPT Play platforms.
