Where will the 2023 FIFA Club World Cup be held?

FIFA announced on Monday that the 2023 Club World Cup will be held in the city of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia. 

The decision was made after a FIFA delegation visited Jeddah last week to evaluate the progress of the tournament preparations.

“We are delighted that Jeddah, with its state-of-the-art facilities and reputation for hosting major international sports events, has been selected as host city for the FIFA Club World Cup,” President of SAFF Yasser Al Misehal said.

The tournament, scheduled to take place from December 12th-22nd, will be hosted in Saudi Arabia for the first time, as previously stated in February.

The 2023 Club World Cup will be the final edition of its current format, which is an annual tournament featuring seven teams. After that, the format will be discontinued and replaced by a 32-team event starting in 2025 in the United States.
