The Club World Cup takes shape: from 15 June to 13 July, 32 teams will compete for the trophy. A competition that reproduces the World Cup format and which, like the World Cup, will be played every 4 years. Representing Italy are Juventus and Inter, the two best Italians in the Champions League by ranking in the past four years. A medium-level draw for them. The biggest threat for the Italian champions will be River Plate, the historic protagonist of Argentine football. For Juve, however, the biggest obstacle will be Pep Guardiola’s Mancheser City. However, we would like to remind you that each group promotes the top two to the round of 16.
