Next June 15 and until July 13, the new FIFA Club World Cup will be held in the United States, with up to 32 participants. Little by little we are learning more details about what this new competition will be like. The latest update arrived this morning: a player who starts the World Cup with one team will not be able to finish it with another.
Last week, FIFA announced that it would open a transfer window between June 1 and 10, 2025, in this way, the clubs that play in the World Cup will be able to strengthen themselves to face the competition.
Therefore, the clubs participating in the World Cup have the possibility of signing players to play in the competition in the extra window of June 1 or wait for the usual window of July 1. In the latter case, they should know that, if they sign a player who has already participated with a club in the first weeks of the tournament, he will not be able to be registered with his new club to play in that competition.
Additionally, contracts typically expire on June 30; That is, 15 days after the Club World Cup has started and before it ends. Given this situation, FIFA will ask the clubs to reach agreements with the players whose contract ends on June 30, 2025, even temporarily, so that the relationship does not end on the 30th and they can play the competition until final with his club.
