Chelsea set to feature in revamped Club World Cup in 2025 — here's why

FIFA have approved a new format for the Club World Cup after holding an official vote on Tuesday.

The revamped competition will take in place in 2025, featuring 32 teams in an attempt to compete with the Champions League.

As winners of the 2021 edition of UEFA's tournament, Chelsea will be involved. Two more spots will be given to the 2023 and 2024 Champions League winners.

Speaking back in December 2022, FIFA president Gianni Infantino said: "The 32-team tournament will go ahead, making it like a World Cup. It will feature the best teams in the world, of course."
