There will be a newly formatted club World Cup from summer 2021. There will be 24 teams and 8 from Europe. And it’s pretty much what it says on the tin a summer tournament like the World Cup but for clubs.,There is currently no confirmation how the 8 European clubs will be selected. But it has been speculated it will be the previous 4 year CL finalists. So Spurs May have already qualified. The tournament could be worth up to £50m for participants. In theory it sounds like fun especially with a summer with no World Cup or Euros. But of course there is the down side of exhausting players. I’d guess the winners would have to play 5 games.

As recently as March UEFA have said that European clubs will boycott this tournament as it stands. No doubt a fair bit of negotiation will have to take place for it to happen.
