The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup (officially known as the FIFA Club World Cup 2025, also marketed as FIFA Club World Cup 25) is the 21st edition and the first of the expanded FIFA Club World Cup, an international club soccer competition organized by FIFA. The tournament is being played in the United States from June 14 to July 13, 2025. It is held in a format with 32 teams, including the winners of the four previous continental championships. Manchester City enters the tournament as the defending champion, having won its first title in the last tournament under the old format in 2023.
The expanded tournament format was announced in March 2019 and originally scheduled to be hosted by China in 2021 until a postponement due to the COVID-19 pandemic. FIFA approved the allocation of slots between confederations in February 2023 and announced the United States as the host country four months later. The FIFA Intercontinental Cup was established as an annual tournament using a very similar version of the old format.
The expansion of the tournament was met with criticism by players' union FIFPRO and the World Leagues Forum due to the impact it is expected to have on fixture congestion and player welfare.
