You might ignore him. But it was not because a 32 team World Cup was held last summer that the intercontinental cup disappeared from the landscape. This annual competition (while the World Cup will take place every four years) will take place in December, with Paris Saint-Germain on the poster.
The capital's club now knows that it will have to move to Qatar, in the country of its majority shareholder. The Staff will organize this competition, as last year, when Real Madrid had won.
Winner of the Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain is directly qualified for the final of this intercontinental cup, of which we know four of the other five qualified: the CF Cruz Azul (Mexico), the Pyramids FC (Egypt), Auckland City (New Zealand) as well as Al Ahli (Saudi Arabia). We will have to add a South American club, the winner of the Copa Libertadores, whose final is scheduled for November 29.
Program responsible for PSG
PSG will play its intercontinental cup final on Wednesday, December 17. The previous weekend, Luis Enrique's men will play in Metz on behalf of the 16th day of Ligue 1. The following weekend will be devoted to the 32nd finals of the Coupe de France, with the entry into the elite clubs.
If PSG wins at the end of December in Doha, this trophy the sixth of its calendar year, after the Champions Trophy, the French Cup, League 1, the Champions League and the European Supercoupe.
