The news makes noise. The first Club World Cup, the FIFA tournament that promises to rain millions on the teams that participate, will have to do without the Barcelona. The elimination in the Champions League against Psg in fact he leaves the team blaugrana behind Atletico Madrid, among the Spanish teams, in terms of ranking in the Champions League. A defeat.
Club World Cup: Barcelona excluded, Atletico qualify
In the United States, Barcelona will not be there. Excluding. The tournament which will close next season between June and July 2025 should guarantee those who participate extra revenues starting from 50 million euros. To rise as you progress through the competition. For Barcelona it means opening a further gap with Real Madrid, who, having won the 2022 Champions League, already have a guaranteed place. But also with Atletico: a way for Simeone to digest the elimination in the quarterfinals – like the Barça – against the Dortmund. But who are the qualified teams? And when will it be played?

Club World Cup, Arsenal and Salzburg hope
Twelve European teams, six South American, four African and as many from Asia and Central-North America, plus one from Oceania. Europe qualifies the winners of the last 4 editions of the Champions League, plus the best 8 by Champions ranking (not UEFA, otherwise Roma would have had a place): each country cannot have more than 2 teams, unless they are all winners of the tournament. So, to date, the qualifiers are: City, Real, Chelsea – who have won the last 3 editions of the Champions League – plus this season’s winner. The others qualified by ranking are Bayern, PSG, Inter, Porto, Benfica, Borussia Dortmund, Juventus, Atletico Madrid.

Club World Cup, Boca and River almost certain
There is one place missing, to be assigned to the winner of this edition. The only one in the race who doesn’t already have the pass isArsenal. If the Londoners did not win (2nd place is not enough), Salzburg would qualify, the best in ranking of a country that does not already have 2 clubs in the World Cup. The situation in South America is more complicated: for now only 3 Brazilian clubs have a place, the winners of the last 3 Libertadores: Fluminense, Flamengo, Palmeiras. This season’s winner is missing plus two ranking places, which today would belong to Boca Junior e River Plate. Opening match of the tournament on 15 June 2025, final on 13 July.
