Every December the Club World Cup brings together the champions from each continent for a one‑week showdown. It may not have the same hype as the World Cup, but the games are fierce and the stakes are high – win and you’re crowned the best club on the planet.
For fans, the biggest question is always: who’s playing and when? This year the tournament kicks off on December 12 with the opening match between the host nation’s champion and the African winner.

Key players to watch include the goal‑scoring forwards from the European champion, who usually dominate the goal charts, and the midfield engine from the South American side, known for creative passes.
