The draw for the Club World Cup, scheduled to be held in the United States in the summer of 2025, will be held on December 5 in Miami, the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA) announced on Monday.

The clubs will be divided into eight groups, each group containing 4 clubs, with the first and second place teams in each group qualifying for the knockout stages.

The tournament will witness the participation of the most prominent European clubs, led by Real Madrid of Spain, Manchester City of England, Bayern Munich of Germany, and Paris Saint-Germain of France, while South America will be represented by six teams, most notably Boca Juniors and River Plate from Argentina, in addition to the Copa Libertadores champion between the Brazilian clubs Atletico Mineiro and Botafogo in the final scheduled for the 30th of this month in Buenos Aires.

The new edition of the Club World Cup has drawn widespread criticism in recent months, with many fearing the consequences of match congestion and its negative impact on players.
