The FIFA Club World Cup is taking on a fresh format this summer, introducing a 32-team tournament in the U.S. with a staggering $1 billion in prize money, marking the first edition of this expanded competition. Notable teams like Paris Saint-Germain, UEFA Champions League winners, and Argentine powerhouse Boca Juniors are set to compete, alongside a diverse mix from various regions, including 12 European teams, six from South America, four from Asia and Africa, and five North American teams, which include three from Major League Soccer. Oceania will be represented by Auckland City, the only amateur team in the lineup.<\/p>\n
