Despite the megalomaniacal announcements of FIFA, the Club World Cup has not met with excessive approval. The fans are not overly interested, and the players complain about the extra games in an already crowded calendar. However, the new competition will be an absolute priority for the clubs.
The reason is very simple – money. Namely, FIFA has prepared huge cash prizes for all participating clubs. Real Madrid will thus receive 30 million euros just for participating in the tournament. Given that Real are the most successful and quite possibly the most famous club in the world, they will get a bigger slice of the money pie from TV rights and marketing.
Marca writes that the Royal Club would receive a prize of more than one hundred million euros by winning the tournament. It is not difficult to conclude that this is a huge amount, which will make the World Club Championship very interesting for clubs, writes Sportske novosti.
The championship will be held in the USA from June 15 to July 13. The tournament will be a sort of prelude to the World Team Championship, which will be held in Canada and Mexico in 2026, in addition to the USA.
