Let’s go for this Club World Cup in a brand new format. Too many matches and still no broadcaster… despite the criticism linked to its launch, this competition ended up seeing the light of day. It is certainly still the subject of some controversy, such as adding to an already very busy schedule for the players, but FIFA ended up finding who to sell the TV rights to. This was the main crux of the problem because as long as the money falls, the clubs don’t say no. The Parisian president has always campaigned for this international competition. PSG will also be the only French representative in the United States between June 15 and, possibly if it goes to the final, July 13, 2025.
The capital club will play at least three matches in the group stage, before the start of the final phase of the tournament. You will have to at least finish among the first two in your group. A possible scenario since the draw has just ended. The Ile-de-France residents, placed in group B, will face Atlético de Madrid, an opponent they met in the Champions League just a month ago, Botafogo, winner of the Copa Libertadores, and Seattle Sounders, 4th in the regular season. of MLS in the Western Conference and eliminated in the conference final by LA Galaxy.
Nasser Al-Khelaïfi can’t wait!
There is necessarily a little curiosity in these opponents who usually play on another continent. PSG, however, says it is impatient to be there. “It’s a historic day for Paris Saint-Germain and the 32 clubs in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, vying to become the best team in the world next summer. We always want to fight for the biggest trophies and grow our fan base around the world. Next summer promises to be an exciting tournament in the United States for our players, fans and the PSG family», assured Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, president of the Parisian club.
We will have to be patient before attending this 2025 Club World Cup. Before the start of this competition, there is still half a season to go with its verdict. Lacking confidence at the moment, PSG must first cure its ailments, especially offensively, and ensure its place in the 24 best teams in the Champions League. The reigning French champion will then have plenty of time to think about what comes next, but until then, many hazards can still happen.
