Four clubs have already qualified for the 2029 FIFA Club World Cup, even though the 2025 final is yet to be contested.

Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea will meet on Sunday in the first final under the tournament’s expanded format.

Unlike the previous annual version, the revamped Club World Cup will now be staged every four years—mirroring the structure of the FIFA World Cup and the UEFA European Championship.
