In the expanded version of the club team World Cup, where so far seven teams from around the world made up the title, now 24 teams will participate.
-The new tournament will be a competition that all people ... everyone who loves football looks forward to. It is the first and real World Cup where the best clubs meet. It will be played between 24 teams and will be held in June-July, says Gianni Infantino.
Last spring, the European top clubs' organization ECA announced that they would boycott Fifa's plans for an expanded club team World Cup. The letter was signed by, among others, Manchester United and Barcelona
