This year’s Club World Cup is a game-changer. Unlike the previous seven-team format, the 2025 edition is a bold step toward inclusivity and global representation, featuring 12 UEFA teams, 6 from CONMEBOL, and 4 each from AFC, CAF, and CONCACAF, plus one from OFC.

Heavyweights like Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, PSG, and Inter Milan are already locked in, joined by rising stars like Inter Miami, who’ll face Al-Ahly in the opening match at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. With a massive £774m prize pool and £97m for the winners, the stakes are sky-high!

What makes this tournament extra exciting is the blend of tradition and innovation.

From European giants to South American flair, African resilience, and Asian dynamism, the diversity of playing styles will be a feast for football fans. Plus, blockchain enthusiasts on Hive will love knowing that FIFA has previously embraced Web3, with NFT collections and crypto partnerships enhancing fan engagement. Could we see more blockchain integration this year? Let’s speculate!
