Football's world governing body FIFA announced that the 2023 Club World Cup will be held in the Saudi Arabian city of Jeddah.
The tournament, to be played from December 12-22, will be held in Saudi Arabia for the first time, as announced earlier in February.
The 2023 edition of the Club World Cup will be the last in the current format – an annual competition with seven teams – to be discontinued before an expansion to a 32-team event, first held in the United States in 2025.
FIFA has designated the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium and Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Stadium as the venues for the 2023 tournament, capable of accommodating approximately 62,000 and 27,000 spectators, respectively.
In February, FIFA selected Saudi Arabia as the host country for the 2023 Club World Cup, as part of the kingdom’s ambitious efforts to leave a lasting impact on the global sports stage.
